Coordination Framework Claims Largest Bloc as Iraq Confirms Final Election Results

Coalition bargaining begins under a fragmented map.

Overview

  • The election commission confirmed final tallies with Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani’s bloc on 46 seats in the 329-seat parliament.
  • State of Law won 29 seats, the Sunni Taqaddum Party took 27, and the Kurdistan Democratic Party secured 26, with overall turnout at 56.11%.
  • The pro-Iran Coordination Framework said it has formed the largest parliamentary bloc and set committees to define governance terms and choose a prime minister.
  • Seat distribution reflects broad alignments with 187 seats for Shiite blocs, 77 for Sunnis, 56 for Kurds, and nine reserved for minorities.
  • The Federal Supreme Court designated the government as a caretaker with limited powers until a new parliament and cabinet are formed, and negotiations are expected to take months.
