Jordan has initiated its first parliamentary elections under a new law designed to reduce tribalism and enhance political party representation, coinciding with heightened public anger over the Gaza war. The 2022 electoral reform allocates 41 seats for licensed political parties, increases women's representation to 18 seats, and lowers the minimum age for candidates to 25. Despite these changes, traditional tribal and pro-government factions are expected to maintain control over the 138-seat parliament. The electoral climate is heavily influenced by anti-Israel sentiments, with the Islamist opposition, particularly the Islamic Action Front, hoping to capitalize on public discontent to secure more seats. However, analysts caution that while the war may energize some voters, it could also lead to increased abstention rates. Economic concerns, including high unemployment and declining tourism, further complicate the political landscape as voters seek solutions to pressing issues that extend beyond the electoral outcomes.
