How many members does the Palestinian Legislative Council have under the current election law?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 132 members
- Step 1: The first council elected in 1996 had 88 members. Step 2. A 2005 election law raised the number to 132 for the 2006 elections. Answer: 132 members. Why not the others: 88 was the 1996 number, and 50 and 200 are not used.
