A senior official at the Central Elections Commission says that the final official result now shows Hamas has won 74 rather than 76 seats in the election. The former ruling Fatah faction's tally has been revised upwards from 43 to 45. The landslide victory for Hamas marked an end to Fatah's decade-long dominance of the Parliament. |
