The Lebanese parliament fails to elect a president for the 7th and 8th times. Today's vote, the eighth attempt, resulted in: - 52 blank papers (Hezbullah and allies) - 37 for Michel Moawad (American and Saudi allies in Lebanon)
The Lebanese parliament fails to elect a president for the 9th time.

Blank papers: 39
Michel Moawad: 39

The drop in blank papers is due to FPM's dispute with Hezbullah. Some members likely voted “Michel” or “Moawad” as a stance of defiance, although such votes were not valid. The votes for “Badri Daher” are also from FPM members. Daher is the former customs chief who was detained following the Beirut Port explosion. One MP voted for “Moawad Badri Daher”.
