Baku / 05.03.20 / Turan: Plenum of the Constitutional Court approved the results of parliamentary elections on the basis of the Final Protocol submitted by the CEC
Thus, 121 out of 125 deputies are considered elected. 70 of them are representatives of the New Azerbaijan Party. Eight parties have 8 seats, including 3 for the Civil Solidarity Party, 1 for the Fatherland Party, the Democratic Reforms Party, the Civil Unity Party, the Vahdat (Unity) Party, the Popular Front Party of Single Azerbaijan, the Democratic Education Party, and the Great Creation Party. Another 41 deputies are non-partisan.
Thus, the representative of the only opposition Republican Alternative party, Erkin Gadirli, is going to parliament. However, since the party is not officially registered, he is officially among the non-party.
In 4 districts where the results were canceled by the CEC, re-elections will be held.
