    The last two paragraphs of the Local Council Elections Act are before Parliament today


     Baghdad / Wael Ne'ma 

    In the face of the failure of dozens of political meetings to get out of the "quagmire of the Kirkuk elections," the solution to pass the law of local elections left to vote the House of Representatives.
    It is expected that the President of the Council, Salim al-Jubouri, the session (on Sunday) two paragraphs to vote on the local elections, which some are demanding to postpone several months. The first paragraph concerns the timing of the elections and the second includes three proposals to resolve the elections in Kirkuk, which have not been held since 2005.
    And disrupted the differences, passed the law of local elections for about 5 months, where the political forces stopped during the discussion of the law in August last when only two items belong to Kirkuk out of the legislation, which includes 53 articles. 
    At that time, the council decided to leave the legislation incomplete until Kirkuk's three political components (Arabs, Turkmen and Kurds) came to a compromise on provincial elections. 
    After 10 meetings between these forces, Hassan Turan, the Turkmen deputy for Kirkuk, announced the "failure of negotiations" and a return to the rule of voting in parliament to determine the fate of the province and the electoral law. 
    Article 37 (I) of the draft local elections law - which is close to the demands of the Turkmen - contains a map of the elections in Kirkuk which includes a few requirements: 
    a. Review and audit all data and records relating to the population status of the province, including the voter register.
    (B) A mechanism for the sharing of senior positions in the province, with the exception of federal posts, to ensure representation of all components of the governorate. 
    C / The status of the province of Kirkuk remains as it is currently until the decision of the House of Representatives to put the province in the future. 
    "We will go to vote in the parliament session today and we will vote on two paragraphs on Kirkuk and the election law, as we agreed at the last meeting, which included the heads of blocs in parliament last week," Turan said. The first paragraph includes a deadline for the local elections, after the House of Representatives last summer decided to merge them with the legislative elections scheduled for May 12. 
    But some views have recently emerged calling for an extension of the provincial elections to three or six months, for the continued existence of the more than three million displaced people in the camps, as well as the massive destruction of their cities.
    The postponement of the local elections may hold the government additional money as parliament decides to hold it separately from the date of the legislative vote. MPs estimate that this measure would require an additional 296 billion dinars for the election budget. 
    The Electoral Commission demanded early this year to provide the last amount to hold elections as scheduled by the government and voted by parliament a week ago. 
    The second paragraph, which will be presented to the vote in Sunday's session, contains 3 proposals to resolve the fate of Kirkuk local elections, where political differences over the past years to disrupt the voting twice and threaten to disrupt the third. 
    The first proposal, the proposal of the National Alliance, provides for the sharing of administrative seats in the governorate between the three components on the basis of 32% for each party and 4% for Christians for one electoral cycle.
    The second proposal includes the repeal of Article 37 in the draft local elections law, and the holding of the governorate in the same manner as the rest of the provinces. 
    Kurdish parties consider Turkoman's demands as attempts to prevent elections. Zana Said, a deputy for the Islamic Group in parliament, criticized the proposal for the distribution of posts, asking: "Why should we hold elections?" 
    The proposal of the "National Alliance" is the same as in the previous provincial elections law in 2013, which provided for the postponement of the ballot in the governorate and the sharing of security and administrative authorities between the components.
    "Article 37 of the electoral law is useless and some of its clauses are not related to the elections," he said. In addition, some Kurdish forces have announced their opposition to holding elections in Kirkuk and the disputed provinces. 
    The Kurdistan Islamic Union announced last week that the current situation in the province of Kirkuk is not suitable for holding elections. 
    And the Islamic Union, that the Constitution provides for the joint administration of the disputed areas between the center and the region, but this is not achieved, where it is managed by one party. 
    Failure to agree on Kirkuk may threaten the postponement of local elections across Iraq, as some Kurdish and Sunni forces demand. 
    Rasul Abu Hasna, a member of the Committee of the Regions in the House of Representatives, said that "
    "Some political forces are demanding that the elections be postponed for three to six months, but the vote will decide between the two parties," Abu Hassaneh told Al-Mada. 
    If the parliament fails to vote on the local election law, the vote will be held according to the old law legislator in 2013. 
    But there are some minor changes to the parliament, such as changing the system of dividing the votes, which started right, to "St. Lego rate 1.7" to be compatible with Legislative Elections Act. 
    The paragraph on the conduct of district elections should be abolished, because the recent amendment to Law 21 on the regulation of provincial affairs abolished the district councils and reduced the members of the provincial and district councils by half.
