Baghdad, June 01, 2010, SPA -- Iraq's Supreme Court on Tuesday ratified the results of the nation's March 7 parliamentary election, officially declaring the Iraqiya alliance the vote's biggest winner, the Associated Press reported. The March vote left the country without a clear winner, as none of Iraq's six major political coalitions won a majority in the 325-seat legislature. The confusion has led to nearly three months of ballot recounts and court challenges. Nearly all were brought by the State of Law alliance led by Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. Iraqiya is led by former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi. Iraqiya won 91 seats, two more than the State of Law. --SPA 13:15 LOCAL TIME 10:15 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/787582
