In the second parliamentary elections after the revolution, Tunisians choose their deputies today

Tunisian voters will go to the polls on Sunday to vote in the second parliamentary elections after the 2011 revolution and the adoption of a new constitution in 2014.

In parallel, civil society organizations play an important role in monitoring the conduct of elections, and mobilized thousands of their staff and volunteers, to monitor any abuses committed by the parties involved parties and independents.

Anis Jarboui, a member of the Higher Independent Commission for Tunisian Elections, announced that the rate of voting in the legislative elections abroad reached 7% on Saturday.

As for the ballot inside Tunisia scheduled for today, Jarboui said in a radio statement on Saturday evening that all procedures have been arranged in cooperation with the National Army and the Ministry of Interior to secure the polling stations, and the transfer of electoral materials to all polling stations in various states.

The number of voters eligible to vote in these elections amounts to seven million and 65 thousand and 307 voters, while the total number of polling stations is 13 thousand and 830 offices inside and outside Tunisia.

Resentment and expected results
Tunisia's parliamentary elections on Sunday are unlikely to produce a clear winner, a result of resentment and dissatisfaction with parties embedded in national politics, complicating the formation of a coalition at a pivotal moment for the country's economy.

Reflecting an atmosphere of uncertainty, two major parties (Ennahda and the Heart of Tunisia) have confirmed that they will not join any government that includes the other, an ill-advised stance for the negotiations to take the necessary steps to form a government.

About three weeks ago, voters in the presidential election turned on all the main players in the corridors of government, and rejected the prominent politicians; resulting in the election of two new faces in the runoff.

On October 13, independent academic Qais Said will compete with media magnate Nabil Karoui, who has been detained since August for money laundering and tax fraud, which denies the charges.

This outcome set the stage for today's difficult elections, and a vote could be seen as more important than the presidential election itself, because it is the parliament that will form the next government.

Under the 2014 Tunisian constitution, the prime minister of the largest party in parliament dominates most domestic politics, while the president bears direct responsibility for foreign affairs and defense.

If the largest party fails to win a large number of seats, with many independents, it may be difficult to form a coalition of up to 109 deputies needed to secure majority support for a new government.

He has two months from the date of the election; either he succeeds in doing so or the president assigns another figure to form a government. If it fails, the elections will be held again.
