The Independent Commission for Iraqi Legislative Elections announced on Tuesday that the Sadrist movement led by Muqtada al-Sadr won 73 seats, to be the largest bloc in the Iraqi parliament for the next four years.
A statement by the commission stated that "the Sadrist movement won 73 seats in the legislative elections" out of 329 seats (total seats in the House of Representatives).
The "Al-Fateh Alliance", which objected to the preliminary results, claiming fraud had taken place, won 17 seats.
"There is a change in one seat" in five governorates, compared to the preliminary results announced on the eighth of this month, Commission Chairman Jalil Adnan said during a press conference.
