2009 Saladin governorate election

The Saladin governorate election of 2009, was held on 31 January 2009 alongside elections for all other governorates outside Iraqi Kurdistan and Kirkuk Governorate.

Campaign
The governor of Saladin, Hamad Hamood al-Qaysi, stood for the Iraqi National List of former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi. The INL also recruited local tribal leaders. The INL were successful in the elections because they had consistently opposed the de-Baathification policies of the Iraqi government, which had caused significant unemployment in the province.

The Reconciliation and Liberation Bloc's main slogan was "Get Out, Get Out Occupier".

Results
Immediately after the election, the Iraqi National List and the Iraqi National Dialogue Front claimed victory in Saladin.

In March, the INDF said they would form an alliance with the State of Law Coalition.
