Secretary General of the Register of Political Parties at the IEC Ahmad Abu Zaid told the Jordan News Agency, Petra, that 25 party lists participated in the 2024 parliamentary elections, with 18 of them surpassing the electoral threshold, making them eligible for financial support.
He added that among the 18 lists that passed the threshold, 10 secured seats in the 20th Parliament, while the remaining eight did not win any seats but will still receive JD30,000 in funding, to be distributed equally among the parties within those lists.
