Party websites:

OK according to Wikipedia :

Political parties were banned by the Prohibition of Party Politics Act Number 71 of 1972. According to the Association Act of 1971, the establishment of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is allowed. As they are required to conform to the goals of the revolution, however, the number of NGOs in Libya is small in comparison with neighboring countries. Unions do not exist as such. However, the numerous professional associations are integrated into the state structure as a third pillar, along with the People’s Congresses and Committees, though they do not have the right to strike. Professional associations send delegates to the General People’s Congress, where they have a representative mandate. The General People’s Congress (Mu’tammar al-sha’ab al ‘âmm) consists out of circa 2700 representatives of the Basis People’s Congresses.

So does anyone know if the actually hold election or am I just being stupid in not seeing something that is blatantly obvious to anyone with a working brain.  Please comment below.
