Under Morocco’s constitution, King Mohammed VI must appoint a prime minister from the party that wins the most seats, but PAM fell well short of the 198 seats needed for an outright majority and will need to build a coalition with other parties to govern.
asserted
PAM → mobilise → parties
PAM, founded in 2008 by Fouad Ali El Himma, a friend of the king, has long been seen as a counterweight to the Justice and Development Party (PJD), a moderate Islamist party that led the government for a decade before its parliamentary seats collapsed to 13 in 2021.

seats → found → 2021

asserted

PAM’s senior coalition partner, the National Rally of Independents (RNI), lost significant ground, falling from 102 seats to 66.
Only 38 percent of Morocco’s 15.8 million registered voters cast ballots, the second-lowest turnout since King Mohammed VI ascended to the throne in 1999, after a record-low 37 percent in 2007, and sharply down from the roughly 51 percent recorded in 2021.
Analysts attribute the low number to widespread disengagement following youth-led protests last year over jobs, healthcare and education, and deadly mass attempts by migrants to reach Spain’s North African enclave of Ceuta in July.
