[size=52]Shadow parties add 37 seats to the five big coalitions[/size]

[size=45]Baghdad / Tamim Al-Hassan[/size]
[size=45]It is likely that well-known political forces (Shiites and Sunnis) will add new seats to their quotas in the next parliament, using the “shadow parties” seats, which may increase their seats by more than 30%.[/size]
[size=45]Political currents and individual candidates participated in the recent elections, some of which were affiliated with the "shadow" to major alliances.[/size]
[size=45]Seventeen of those forces and individual candidates affiliated with the parties managed to obtain seats, compared to the failure of 42 currents and individual candidates.[/size]
[size=45]These currents achieved 37 seats, which will be distributed among 5 forces, 3 Shiites and 2 Sunnis. In the last elections, they obtained 105 votes.[/size]
[size=45]Wide shade![/size]
[size=45]The forces that may increase their number of seats depending on the “shadow parties” are the Fatah Alliance led by Hadi al-Amiri.[/size]
[size=45]The coalition, which achieved 18 seats in the last October elections, may alone obtain 20 additional seats from 11 parties and coalitions, and 3 individual candidates.[/size]
[size=45]It is linked to the coalition, which includes 6 political formations, the National Contract Alliance, which is led by the head of the Popular Mobilization Authority, Faleh al-Fayyad, and the latter achieved 5 seats.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayyad had split after the 2018 elections from the Victory Alliance led by former Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, and joined Al-Fateh, which formed the government at the time with the Sadrist movement.[/size]
[size=45]In addition to the Tasmeem coalition headed by Basra Governor Asaad Al-Eidani, the coalition also won 5 seats. Al-Aidani also defected from Al-Abadi in the wake of the Basra demonstrations in 2018 and joined Al-Fateh.[/size]
[size=45]Also, among the most prominent leaders of Tasmeem is Amer Al-Fayez, the former representative of the Al-Fateh Alliance in Basra.[/size]
[size=45]In addition to the rights movement affiliated with the Hezbollah Brigades, which won one seat and is considered among the so-called “coordinating framework” that includes Shiite forces opposed to the election results.[/size]
[size=45]The battalions are among the factions close to Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq, led by Qais Khazali, and it is one of the components of the Al-Fateh Alliance.[/size]
[size=45]The Christian Babylon Movement headed by Rayan al-Kildani, a leader in the Popular Mobilization and a close associate of the Badr Organization, joined “Al-Fateh.” The movement has 4 candidates.[/size]
[size=45]The former head of my country's movement, Zahra Al-Bajari, who is one of the few women who led parties, may join the Al-Fateh Alliance.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Bajari won one seat in the 2021 elections, and after the 2018 elections, she defected from the Wisdom Movement and joined the Al-Fateh Alliance.[/size]
[size=45]In addition to another seat from the Al-Sanad Gathering, affiliated with the representative and leader of the Al-Fateh Alliance, Ahmed Al-Asadi, which was won by former MP Faleh Al-Khazali in Basra, the jihadi assistant of the Sayyid Al-Shuhada Brigades of the Popular Mobilization.[/size]
[size=45]“Kota” and individual nominations[/size]
[size=45]There are also 3 seats that will merge with Al-Fateh, and the first is the seat designated for the “Shabak” in Nineveh, and it went to Waad Qaddo, the former commander of the 30th Brigade within the Popular Mobilization, and the brother of the leader in the Badr Organization, MP Hanin Qaddo, who died last year of the Corona virus.[/size]
[size=45]The other two are from the individual nominations. The first is Ali Turki al-Jamali, the individual candidate in Babel and the leader in Asa'ib, and Youssef al-Nawfali, the individual candidate in Maysan who belongs to Al-Fateh, according to some leaks.[/size]
[size=45]On the other hand, 5 currents linked to “Al-Fateh” lost, most notably the Professionals for Reconstruction Party headed by the former Minister of Reconstruction, Muhammad Al-Daraji and the former deputy for Al-Fateh.[/size]
[size=45]The Enjaz Movement, headed by former Finance Minister Baqir Solagh, is one of the leaders of the Supreme Council affiliated with the Al-Fateh Alliance. The men of Iraq affiliated with "Abu Turab al-Tamimi", who is the commander of the 3rd Brigade (special missions, the Assad Amerli Force), which is affiliated with the Popular Mobilization, gathered.[/size]
[size=45]In addition to the loss of 3 former deputies within Al-Fateh who ran in the last elections individually, they are: Sana Al-Moussawi, Laila Falih, and Mona Al-Gharabi.[/size]
[size=45]Hakim wins two seats[/size]
[size=45]The second force that gained additional seats is the State Forces Alliance led by Ammar al-Hakim, and the alliance, despite its timid results, may add two additional seats to its share in Parliament.[/size]
[size=45]The coalition, which includes the Al-Hikma Movement and the Victory Alliance, won only 4 seats, but based on the data of a group of what is known as the “coordinating framework,” the Iqtidar Movement led by the former leader in Al-Hikma and former Sports Minister Abdul-Hussein Abtan joined the coalition, and the movement has one seat.[/size]
[size=45]In addition to another seat within the Wasit People Gathering, a party that participated in Kut (the center of Wasit governorate), and is headed by the former leader of Al-Hikma and Wasit Governor Muhammad Al-Mayahi.[/size]
[size=45]On the other hand, he was expected to join the awareness movement headed by the former director in the office of Al-Hakim Salah Al-Arbawi, but he did not achieve any seat.[/size]
[size=45]Amer Al-Murshidi also failed to get a seat, as he is the head of the New Iraq Gathering. Al-Murshidi was a former candidate within the Wisdom Movement.[/size]
[size=45]Secret alliance with al-Maliki![/size]
[size=45]As for the State of Law coalition, led by former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, it is the most ambiguous force in its relationship with its affiliates.[/size]
[size=45]The coalition, which won 34 seats, gained one additional seat after the National Hopes Alliance won.[/size]
[size=45]Part of the coalition is led by Abbas al-Shaibani, who is close to the rule of law, and he heads Intifadas affiliated with “National Hopes.” On the other hand, 11 other parties linked to Maliki lost seats, most notably: the Tishreen National Gathering, headed by Saad Al-Muttalib, the leader of the State of Law, and the Euphrates Movement headed by the former deputy in the State of Law, Muhammad Al-Sudani.[/size]
[size=45]Likewise, 9 former state lawmakers who ran alone in the recent elections lost a seat, most notably: Kazem al-Sayyadi, Abd al-Hadi al-Saadawi and Haider al-Mawla.[/size]
[size=45]The ambiguity in the share of the rule of law is that the data of the “coordinating framework” team talks about 6 other seats allied with al-Maliki, without mentioning them specifically.[/size]
[size=45]According to the leaks, these seats may be among the individual nominations that collected 40 seats, as they are waiting for the ratification of the final results of the elections to announce their merger with the rule of law.[/size]
[size=45]In a television interview with the head of the Law Coalition, al-Maliki said that independents joined him, "but they do not reveal their names until after the disputes over the election results are resolved."[/size]
[size=45]The parties to the coordination framework claim that they have so far collected 93 seats, including “38 seats” for the owners and not “34,” according to the uncertified results issued by the Commission, to which 6 seats are added, according to the “framework.”[/size]
[size=45]In addition to the seat of the Nahj Alliance (formerly the Virtue), the Al-Fateh Alliance with 18 seats, the National Contract with 6 seats (not 5, according to the commission’s figures), the State Forces coalition with 5 seats (4 according to the commission), the Rights Alliance one seat, and the Power Alliance one seat.[/size]
[size=45]In addition, according to the data of the coordination framework, they are allied with Badr with 3 seats, allied with the State of Law with 6 seats, allied with Al-Asa’ib 4 seats, and allied with Al-Sanad one seat, in addition to the Tasmeem bloc with 4 seats, and the Babylon bloc with 5 seats (not 4 according to the Commission’s figures) .[/size]
[size=45]So far, no pictures have been published in the media or a conference has been held in which the identity of the real parties within the coordination framework becomes clear, while some opponents of the "framework" claim that it is a "fake bloc" invented by al-Maliki.[/size]
[size=45]9 additional seats[/size]
[size=45]As for the Sunni forces, the Azm alliance headed by Khamis al-Khanjar may add 7 seats. And the coalition won 12 seats in the last elections.[/size]
[size=45]Among the forces allied with it is the Arab Alliance, which has one seat, which was won by the governor of Kirkuk, Rakan al-Jubouri, and Mishaan al-Jubouri, head of the Watan Party (one seat), who openly announced his joining the Khanjar.[/size]
[size=45]In addition to the Iraqi national project, it won one seat. The project is headed by Jamal Al-Dari, who is close to the dagger.[/size]
[size=45]It is expected that Tiare Abu Mazen, former MP Ahmed al-Jubouri, will merge with 4 seats within the Our Jamahiriya Alliance and the Jamahiriya Party.[/size]
[size=45]In exchange for the loss of 5 currents close to Al-Khanjar, most notably the Free Iraqi Bloc headed by former MP Qutaiba Al-Jubouri, and Bayariq Al-Khair affiliated with Defense Minister Khaled Al-Obaidi, a candidate within the “Azm” coalition.[/size]
[size=45]Two separate candidates also lost: Yassin Al-Ithawi, the leader in Azm, and the former deputy within Azm Ismail Al-Shahdani.[/size]
[size=45]As for the "Progress" coalition led by former Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi, it may add only two seats to its 37 seats.[/size]
[size=45]The two seats were won by the Hasm Movement for Reform, which is headed by former MP Thabet al-Abbasi, who is close to al-Halbousi.[/size]
[size=45]In contrast to the failure of 4 currents close to “Taqaddam”, the most prominent of which are: the Iraqi Unity Gathering affiliated to former MP Nehru al-Kasanzani and the winning candidate for Taqaddam, and Iraq is our identity for former MP Kamel al-Ghurairi, who is close to al-Halbousi.[/size]
