Political Reshuffling in Driouch Ahead of Elections

The province of Driouch is experiencing growing political dynamism ahead of the upcoming legislative elections, with the name El Boukili standing out due to his extensive field presence and direct contact with the population, strengthening his position in the local balance of power.
In contrast, the absence of the president of the municipality of Midar, Abdel Salam Taous, from the party activities of the Istiqlal raises questions about the party's future in the region, especially since Taous was one of the most prominent electoral figures who had built a strong presence.
This situation raises the question of whether the party can maintain its electoral base if influential figures step back.
Moreover, the withdrawal of several municipal council members from party activities adds to the uncertainty, but elections remain the ultimate test.
Meanwhile, El Boukili continues to build his presence through proximity to citizens, which could give him a decisive boost on election day.
Midar will be a crucial test for the Istiqlal, while all options remain open pending the official clarification of Taous's position.
