Initially, only 113 lawmakers voted for Matiq, falling short of the 120 votes necessary to secure his win. After the session was adjourned, Libyan TV station Al-Ahrar reported that voting resumed and Matiq secured eight new votes.
So we seen the final results of Obama's Libya campaign.
Tyranny.

"Omar al-Hassi, a political science professor from the country's second-largest city of Benghazi, ran against Matiq. He is backed by the hard-line Islamist bloc in parliament."
So then it's al-Hassi who is backed by the Islamist bloc? I believe that's how the above comment reads.
This would be good news then.
