Jordanian local elections, 2007

Jordanian local elections, 2007

On July 31, 2007 Jordan held mayoral and council elections in 94 municipalities. As in past elections, the Municipality of Greater Amman is exempted from the full election; only half of the 68-member council are elected, while the other half of the MOGA council along with the Mayor are appointed by the King of Jordan.

The elections were the first to take place under new legislation that guarantees at least 20% of elected positions to women candidates and lowers the age of eligible voters from 19 to 18.
