Morocco's biggest party: people who didn't go to vote

38.08% took part. The rest form the largest bloc, with no headquarters and no secretary-general.

The news

Turnout in the 23 September 2026 legislative election was 38.08%, compared with 50.35% in 2021, a fall of more than 12 points.

There were 15,801,162 registered voters, which means about 9.8 million of them did not vote.

The PAM came first with 97 seats out of 395.

The commentary

Satirical opinion from the editors

The "didn't go" party wins by a landslide with no campaign, no leaflets and no promise of a million jobs. Every five years its score comes in, and every party is surprised for exactly one day.

The question isn't why people didn't vote. The question is how many times they've heard the word "trust" while looking at prices.

The biggest message of the election, and nobody wants to read it.
