TRIPOLI, Libya, July 9 (UPI) -- The moderate National Forces Alliance Party was on course to victories in Libya's weekend national elections, initial balloting results showed.
The party, led by Mahmoud Jibril, took 70.1 percent of the vote in the city of Janzour, near Tripoli, and 55.6 percent of the ballots cast in Zliten, which saw heavy fighting in last year's war, the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph reported Monday.
