On the ninth day of the electoral campaign, political leaders continue to traverse the national territory, hosting rallies, town halls, and community outreach events. Unanimously, they have advocated for the election of a National People’s Assembly that mirrors the ambitions of Algerian citizens and addresses their expectations and core concerns. They specifically called for a massive turnout at the ballot boxes to ensure the political success of these legislative polls and to grant indisputable legitimacy to the lower house of Parliament.
Speaking from Constantine, the president of the Movement of Society for Peace (MSP), Abdelali Hassani Cherif, underscored the critical importance of amplifying youth involvement in decision-making by encouraging their integration into political life. During a grassroots rally, the MSP leader characterized young people as “Algeria’s true wealth,” emphasizing that placing trust in them to represent the diverse strata of the population within the National People’s Assembly is the optimal method to channel the worries of rising generations into decision-making circles.
He further noted in this context that the presence of youth within Parliament is bound to “elevate legislative discourse with innovative concepts and viewpoints aligned with the ongoing social, economic, and technological shifts occurring nationwide,” maintaining that this “solidifies the foundation of participatory democracy.”
In the same city, the president of the Tajamou Amel El Djazaïr (TAJ) party, Fatima-Zohra Zerouati, asserted that her political formation’s candidate rosters feature “capable professionals who, if elected, will fulfill their pledge to communicate citizens’ worries across all sectors and help manage them.” She added that her organization’s top priorities include “backing initiatives designed to boost employment rates among youth, who serve as the structural backbone of national development.”
She renewed her appeal to the electorate to head “en masse to the polling stations” on July 2 to select representatives for the National People’s Assembly who are “capable of fulfilling their expectations.”
In El Tarf, the president of the El Moustakbal Front, Fateh Boutbig, remarked that the upcoming legislative elections “represent a watershed moment for completing the structural development of robust institutions capable of safeguarding the public interest,” urging citizens to vote in large numbers and place their trust in his party’s personnel.
Meanwhile, in Tlemcen, the head of the Sawt Chaab party, Lamine Osmani, similarly called for an energetic turnout in the upcoming ballot and advised selecting the most qualified candidates. He reminded the audience that a lawmaker’s duty involves seriously addressing the public’s concerns, participating in draft legislation, and enhancing parliamentary debates with constructive alternatives and proposals, while noting that a representative must remain highly attentive to the expectations and daily worries of the populace.
For his part, the first national secretary of the Front of Socialist Forces (FFS), Youcef Aouchiche, invited citizens from Bordj Bou Arreridj to “participate effectively” in the upcoming legislative races, which he described as “a tool to reinforce the democratic process.” He encouraged voters to choose candidates “possessing the expertise and capability to stand for citizens and defend their concerns and aspirations.”
From Constantine, the secretary general of the Workers’ Party (PT), Louisa Hanoun, affirmed that taking part in the legislative elections on July 2 will help accelerate national development and manifest the hoped-for economic prosperity, observing that an elected official serves as “a central bridge connecting the citizen with state institutions.”
Additionally, the secretary general of the National Democratic Rally (RND), Monder Bouden, proposed the establishment of permanent frameworks to guarantee seamless coordination among various elected assemblies to quicken local development timelines. These mechanisms aim to “structure all collective efforts and improve their coherence and efficiency to drive regional growth while respecting the unique characteristics of each province,” he explained during a public gathering in Guelma.
