abstract
| - The Qatifi presidential election of 2015 was held from the 31st July-4th August 2015. It was the second presidential election in Qatif that took place following the Arab Spring. The winner of the election was Islamist candidate Abdulaziz Al-Qazwini who wrested power from the Ba'athist president Mohammed Mujawar, meaning for the first time in Qatifi history it's president was not from the military or the Ba'ath Party. Qatif uses a instant runoff voting system to determine the president, who is elected directly. Under the current 2011 constitution the president can be elected up to three four year terms. Islamist candidate Abdulaziz Al-Qazwini won the initial round getting 31% of the vote, with President Mohammed Mujawar coming second with 29% of the vote. As such, both candidates progressed into the second round that was held on the 7th August. In the second round Al-Qazwini won with 53% of the vote, resulting in him being elected as the fourth president of Qatif.
