In a recent development in Morocco's parliamentary elections, Nabilla Mounib has secured a seat in the House of Representatives, representing the Anfa constituency in Casablanca. According to preliminary results, Mounib, leading the left-wing coalition list, has won one of the four parliamentary seats allocated to the Anfa constituency. This marks her return to the parliamentary arena after a previous term from 2021.
Mounib's victory is seen as a significant achievement for the left-wing coalition, which had been absent from the Anfa constituency's parliamentary seats in the 2021 elections. Her return to parliament comes after she was previously elected as a representative in 2021 through the regional list of the Casablanca-Settat region. The left-wing coalition had high hopes for Mounib's candidacy, given her prior experience and political presence.
The Anfa constituency is one of several key areas in Casablanca where various parties have competed for parliamentary seats. Preliminary results indicate that other parties have also made significant gains in different constituencies across Casablanca. The Union Constitutionnelle has secured four seats, while the PJD has taken the lead in several areas, including Al-Hi al-Hassani and Ben M'sik.
The elections have seen varying levels of participation, with some areas recording higher voter turnout than others. According to Idris Azmi, the low participation rate is a concern, and he holds the government responsible for this. On the other hand, Chakib Ben Moussa, head of the liberal party, has expressed satisfaction with the preliminary results and the participation rate.
The preliminary results are still subject to change as the process of vote counting and tabulation continues. The official announcement of final results is expected once the process is complete. Until then, these results remain provisional. The elections have been closely watched, with various parties vying for seats in the House of Representatives.
In related news, the Casablanca-Settat region has seen significant competition among various parties. The PJD has taken the lead in several areas, including Ain Sabaâ and Al-Fdaa. Other parties, such as the RNI and the PAM, have also secured seats in different constituencies. The final results will determine the composition of the House of Representatives.
