Electoral integrity concerns in Morocco

Overview

Political concerns regarding electoral integrity and corruption have emerged in Morocco. The Progress and Socialism Party (PPS) warned of “shameful political practices and illegal methods,” specifically citing the use of money and unethical inducements that could undermine public trust. The party accused the government of normalizing corruption to serve “oligarchic lobbies.”

These criticisms have manifested locally in the Taroudant province. In the Oulad Berhil region, former political leaders have described elections as having devolved into a “market” driven by money rather than programmatic competition. Additionally, local political shifts have been reported, including the resignation of an Istiqlal Party leader to join the National Rally of Independents (RNI) due to dissatisfaction with municipal management.
