Morocco’s Interior Ministry has summoned political party leaders for a new round of talks on proposals to prepare for upcoming elections, party sources told Hespress AR.

Party leaders received invitations Saturday from the ministry’s electoral affairs directorate to attend a meeting Monday at 2 p.m. in Rabat, according to the same sources.

The discussions are expected to focus on political parties’ proposals for revising election laws ahead of the 2026 legislative vote.

Key points of contention include election oversight, women and youth representation, candidacy conditions, and banning individuals accused of corruption from running for office.

Parties are also expected to raise issues related to voter registration, as well as voting methods for Moroccans living abroad, in an effort to secure broader participation and representation.

In recent months, political parties have submitted memorandums outlining concrete proposals to improve Morocco’s electoral system.

The Interior Ministry is set to draft a reform project in the coming weeks to update the framework governing elections for the House of Representatives, taking into account the parties’ proposals and the outcomes of ongoing discussions.
