The Alliance Sociale, a coalition led by the Mauritian Labour Party (PTr) and including the Mauritian Party of Xavier-Luc Duval (PMXD), the Mauritian Social Democrat Party (MSN), Les Verts (Greens), the Republican Movement, and the Mauritian Militant Socialist Movement (MMSM), won the election with 42 of the 70 seats (38 elected directly, and another 4 nominated under the country's "best loser" system). The PTr leader, Navin Ramgoolam, was subsequently appointed Prime Minister on 5 July, with Rashid Beebeejaun as his deputy. Three other coalition leaders were elected, but the Les Verts leader failed to oust outgoing Prime Minister Paul Bérenger from his constituency. 24 seats were won by Bérenger's coalition, consisting of the Mauritian Militant Movement (MMM) and the Militant Socialist Movement (MSM); of these, 22 were directly elected and two were nominated as "best losers". Pravind Jugnauth, the MSM leader, lost his seat to an Alliance Sociale candidate. The two seats reserved for the island of Rodrigues were won by the Rodrigues Movement (OPR); another 2 OPR members were appointed as "best losers." Electoral system The National Assembly consisted of 60 members elected from three-seat constituencies in mainland Mauritius by multiple non-transferable vote, two members elected from a two-seat constituency (the island of Rodrigues) by the same system, and up to eight "best loser" seats appointed to ensure that ethnic and religious minorities are equitably represented. Results The total number of votes is higher than the population because voters could cast up to three votes.Adam Carr File:Mauritian Parliament 2005.svg Cons Constituency BL Best loser Total Alliance Sociale (PTR–PMXD–LVF–MR–MMSM) 948756 38 4 42 Labour Party (Mauritius) MSM/MMM (MMM–MSM–PMSD) 831738 22 2 24 Militant Socialist Movement Mauritian Solidarity Front 37472 0 0 0 Rodrigues People's Organisation 20293 2 0 2 Rodrigues Movement 19547 0 2 2 National Democratic Movement Raj Dayal 18467 0 0 0 Lalit 13726 0 0 0 Mauritian People's Party 7919 0 0 0 Muslim People's Front 4218 0 0 0 Rezistans ek Alternativ 2964 0 0 0 Alliance For Justice 2548 0 0 0 Tamil Council 1980 0 0 0 Group of Five 1547 0 0 0 Independent Socialist Movement 1337 0 0 0 Independent Forward Bloc 1217 0 0 0 Mauritian Union 1066 0 0 0 Rally of Social Workers 1059 0 0 0 Parti Malin 959 0 0 0 Majority Party 875 0 0 0 Popular Place Movement 733 0 0 0 Union Patriots Ilois Mauricien 643 0 0 0 Mauritian National Movement 580 0 0 0 Mauritian Democratic Movement 572 0 0 0 Mauritian Workers' Movement 472 0 0 0 Conservative Party 426 0 0 0 Democratie Union Socialist Mauricien 267 0 0 0 Ekta Party 171 0 0 0 Mauritian Muslim Action Committee 158 0 0 0 Mauritian Democracy 135 0 0 0 Mauritian Socialist Rally 133 0 0 0 Patriotic Reformist Organisation 132 0 0 0 Mauritian Worker Solidarity Movement Rodrigues Agalega 125 0 0 0 Rallying Responsible Rodriguans 97 0 0 0 Top Dhamaka Vrai Rouge 88 0 0 0 Rodriguan People's Progressive Front 87 0 0 0 Socialist Labour Movement 71 0 0 0 Mauritius Party Rights 51 0 0 0 Independents 38487 0 0 0 62 8 70 +30 660376 5922 817305 Electoral Commission, African Elections Database By constituency Constituency MP Party Notes 1 Grand River North West–Port Louis West Arianne Navarre-Marie Mauritian Militant Movement Reelected Jean Claude Barbier Mauritian Militant Movement Reelected Sheila Grenade Militant Socialist Movement Elected James Burty David Labour Party (Mauritius) Best Loser;
