Morocco’s 2026 legislative elections: political map now set

This update focuses on Morocco 2026 legislative results. Final results for Morocco’s 2026 legislative elections, held on 23 September, fully confirm the previously announced provisional tallies and lock in the country’s new political landscape.

Morocco 2026 legislative results: no change from provisional count

According to the Interior Ministry, the Morocco 2026 legislative results are identical to the provisional figures. No major shifts have been reported.

This confirmation comes after provincial and regional counting commissions, chaired by magistrates, completed their work across the kingdom’s prefectures, provinces, district prefectures and regions.

These commissions also proclaimed the results for the election of the House of Representatives, drew up the official minutes and submitted copies to the Constitutional Court, in line with current legislation.

A new balance of power in the House of Representatives

The final results, declared for each local and regional constituency, produce a Parliament dominated by several major parties.

• The Party of Authenticity and Modernity (PAM) comes first with 97 seats.
• The National Rally of Independents (RNI) wins 66 seats.
• The Istiqlal Party secures 65 seats.
• The Justice and Development Party (PJD) takes 54 seats.
• The Popular Movement (MP) wins 29 seats.
• The Socialist Union of Popular Forces (USFP) holds 26 seats.
• The Party of Progress and Socialism (PPS) gains 19 seats.

Other represented parties include the Constitutional Union (UC) with 17 seats, the Democratic and Social Movement (MDS) and the Left Alliance with 8 seats each. The Democratic Forces Front (FFD) and the Equity Party obtain two seats each, while the New Democrats Party and the Unity and Democracy Party gain one seat each.

This official distribution of the Morocco 2026 legislative results now forms the basis for coalition talks, the formation of a governing majority and the choice of the next executive.

What this means for Moroccans living abroad

For Moroccans living outside the country, the confirmation of the final results does not directly change day-to-day administrative procedures, but it does provide a clearer political framework for the coming years.

Once a new government is formed, decisions may follow on issues closely watched by Moroccans abroad, such as consular services, investment facilitation in Morocco, conditions for return or settlement, and arrangements linked to seasonal travel.

Anyone planning to return, buy property or launch a business in Morocco will want to monitor the future governing coalition, as it will signal priorities in economic, social and administrative policies.

Institutional steps before the new parliament takes office

With the proclamation of the final this case and the filing of official records with the Constitutional Court, the electoral process is entering its closing phase.

The next key step will be any validation or rulings by the Court, followed by the installation of the new House of Representatives. Only then will formal consultations begin on government formation and the programme for the new term.

For Moroccans abroad, the real impact will come through the public policies implemented by the next government, especially those that concern ties with the home country, remote administrative services and investment or employment opportunities.
