Lebanese government is sectarian - it has a fixed number of seats for each religious group based on the population. Lebanon's religious demographic:
27% Sunni Muslim
27% Shia Muslim
41% Christian
5% Druze
The main race in the election was between Saad Hariri's Western and Saudi-backed coalition and Hezbollah, the Shia resistance movement led by Hassan Nasrallah.
Hariri’s bloc, the Future Movement, won 21 seats in Sunday's vote, a decline of 11 from the last election. Hariri will still have the largest Sunni bloc in parliament, so will likely remain as prime minister (PM must be Sunni).
The Shi’ite movements, Hezbollah and Amal, together with their partner, the Christian Free Patriotic Movement, have together garnered 67 of the 128 seats. Both parties campaigned on fighting corruption.
