Beirut-Madinati has indeed lost but the big surprise is that the difference in votes was around 15,000 only!
It is also worth noting that the difference was 7,156 votes between Elie Yahchouchi (39,089) who got the least votes on the Beirutis List and Ibrahim Mneimneh (31,939) the head of the Beirut Madinati list. Nadine Labaki got 31,738 votes and was 7,351 from breaching the Beirutis list. Also Beirut-Madinati managed to get twice as many votes as the Beirutis List in Beirut’s first electoral district.
Let’s keep in mind that Beirut-Madinati was up against everyone currently in power.
Thank you Beirut-Madinati!
Hello 🙂 Can’t we put that the difference is 7000 (which BM’s highest VS Beyrte’s lowest? Or really highlight that the highest of both had a difference of only 15,000?
Olga,
Added 🙂
Any info about how many votes Nahas & co got?
12000 so an alliance would have been instrumental for sure
7000 alliance would have lost BM credibility
Beirut madinati should become an NGO and make the lives of the Beirutis miserable by highlighting every mistake they make (there will be a lot)
they wont be working la ya3mlo mistakes 🙂 …

hope they will get the message kermel jabal lebnen area & future elections
There are no alternatives to usual candidates in most of Mount Lebanon…
it’s either parties or families with the biggest posse… 🙂
Nahas got around 6.900 votes, but all those who voted nahas list of 4, put 20 BM names. so an alliance would have been the same
