PJD Achieves Significant Victory in Casablanca-Settat
In a notable outcome from the legislative elections held on September 23, 2026, the Justice and Development Party (PJD) has successfully secured 13 seats within the Casablanca-Settat region. This result, announced based on the preliminary counts following the election, positions the PJD among the leading political parties in one of Morocco's key electoral regions. The Casablanca-Settat area is recognized for its multiple legislative districts, encompassing the prefecture of Casablanca along with various provinces and prefectures that comprise this populous region.
The acquisition of these seats follows an extensive electoral campaign where the PJD underscored several priorities, including enhancing purchasing power, creating job opportunities, improving public services, and advancing social policies. Central to their campaign was an emphasis on governance issues and addressing the prevailing economic and social conditions facing the populace. The PJD's platform resonated with a significant portion of the electorate, particularly in light of Casablanca-Settat’s substantial demographic and economic weight, contributing to a robust voter turnout during the elections.
The Casablanca-Settat region plays a critical role in the national electoral landscape, as it harbors a significant fraction of the national electorate essential for determining the composition of the House of Representatives. The party's performance in this region highlights its ongoing influence and relevance in Moroccan politics. As the nation looks towards future governance, the PJD's success in these elections may signal a continuation of its policies aimed at addressing the pressing needs of the Moroccan people.
