All 11 candidates we fielded in the vote have won," Hasan Fadlallah, also an MP in the outgoing parliament, told AFP. He added that overall, Hezbollah and its allies had won 21 seats in districts in southern Lebanon and 10 seats in the eastern Baalbek region. Fadlallah would not comment on claims by the ruling coalition saying that the final results were not yet in. "What matters to us now is that Lebanon turns a new page, one based on partnership, cooperation and understanding," he said. "Lebanon's specificity is in its diversity and there is no majority or minority," he told AFP. "No party can claim to have won the majority among all communities."
