On Sunday, April 19, the Justice and Development Party (PJD) made significant strides in finalizing a portion of its candidate list for the upcoming legislative elections scheduled for September. This development occurred during a regional general assembly, signaling an organizational effort aimed at accelerating preparations for the impending electoral contest.
This meeting is part of an internal dynamic initiated by the party at the national level, which seeks to select candidates through structured organizational processes. Such efforts are intended to reinforce the principles of transparency and internal democracy in managing nominations.
As a result of the party's deliberations, several names have been endorsed to lead its electoral lists in various constituencies. Notably, Mohammed Khi has been nominated for the Fes district, while Abdullah Bouano will represent Meknes, Ali Al-Asri for Taounate, Osama Al-Mohammadi for Sefrou, and Jamal Madani in Ifrane.
Additionally, other candidates have been endorsed within local lists, including Abd al-Haq Al-Saidi, as part of the party's strategy to ensure coverage across different districts with candidates who possess both experience and organizational competence.
In the Taza district, the general assembly witnessed notable competition among several candidates, with Mohammed Bziz leading the voting results by securing 35 votes, followed closely by Khalid Bouqriqi, Ahmed Bouda (the party's regional secretary), along with Tarek Meziane Maltasi and Mohammed Al-Tikfawi.
Despite this ranking, the final decision regarding the head of the list for the Taza district remains with the party's central leadership, which is expected to announce its decision in the near future.
Observers believe that these nominations reflect the party's inclination to reorganize its ranks and strengthen its presence in the local political landscape, particularly following the setbacks experienced during previous electoral events. The party aims to blend seasoned candidates with new faces, striving to regain voter trust and achieve positive outcomes in the upcoming September elections.
With these steps, the Justice and Development Party has laid down initial outlines for its electoral campaign, awaiting the completion of further endorsements and final decisions on the districts still under consideration, with Taza being at the forefront.
