Moroccan elections start today
Today, Morocco launched its twelfth legislative parliamentary elections since independence, with the participation of more than 15.8 million voters to select 395 deputies from among 7,288 candidates across 1,850 electoral lists. This occurs amid broad competition among political parties and expectations of new balances within the parliament and government. The elections are conducted according to a proportional representation system, with seats distributed between local districts (305) and regional ones (90). Special attention is given to the participation of women, which exceeded 36% of the candidates. Citizens aim to form a parliamentary majority that will enable the formation of the government by the leading party, in accordance with the Moroccan constitution. Emphasis is placed on transparency and integrity, under the supervision of authorities and judicial bodies, along with intensive security preparations to ensure the safety and monitoring of the electoral process. The results will shape the contours of the upcoming political phase, amid concerns about how alliances may influence government formation. Meanwhile, voter turnout and election integrity remain among the most closely watched issues.
