PJD Criticizes Electoral Violations and Calls for Integrity
The Justice and Development Party (PJD) has expressed its strong disapproval of various irregularities that could disrupt the upcoming legislative elections, particularly emphasizing the misuse of funds and local authority mechanisms for electoral purposes, as well as the practices of vote-buying and the distribution of illicit money. In a statement released by its regional office in Fez, the party underscored the importance of addressing any actions that could compromise the electoral process. They articulated that these elections represent a genuine opportunity to sever ties with past practices, aiming to rejuvenate the political landscape through respecting the will of voters, which is essential for the success of the electoral process and positively impacts the strengthening of elected institutions. This, in turn, would facilitate the emergence of authentic leaders equipped to fulfill their legal responsibilities.
Furthermore, the PJD urged the relevant authorities to remain vigilant against any threats to the democratic process. It called upon all stakeholders involved in the electoral process—including local authorities, political parties, civil society, and the media—to engage in a comprehensive mobilization and collaboration effort to ensure the success of the upcoming elections. The party envisions these elections as a true democratic celebration that everyone can take pride in, aimed at restoring confidence in the political process within the country and presenting a vibrant image of Morocco as a nation committed to democracy, rights, and citizenship.
The PJD commended the efforts made by the party’s general secretariat in preparing for the upcoming legislative elections while also recognizing the commitment demonstrated by its members in the region. They praised the high level of readiness shown by party members to engage in the electoral challenges ahead, calling for all efforts to achieve results that reflect the political stature of the party in the city of Fez.
