Polisario and Morocco Gain Votes
The article focuses on the decline of the Socialist Union of Popular Forces (USFP) in the Moroccan political scene as the legislative elections approach on September 23, 2026. The party has experienced a series of resignations and leadership changes, with key figures of leftist backgrounds moving to other parties, reflecting a weakening of its ability to maintain a leading position on the Moroccan left. Examples include Abdelhadi Khirat, who joined the Socialist Progress Party, along with other resignations from within the party. This occurs concurrently with the formation of a new leftist alliance between the Unified Socialist Party and the Democratic Left Federation, aiming to unify the Moroccan left and contest the elections with a common political project. Meanwhile, the party's current electoral campaign relies on political figures with external trajectories and faces criticism over candidate selection mechanisms and internal renewal processes, as challenges increase to reclaim its traditional place within the Moroccan left landscape.
