Voting to elect two members of the Lebanese parliament took place in the Batroun District in northern Lebanon in 1968, part of the national general election of that year.[1] Both of the seats of the constituency were earmarked for the Maronite community (for more information about the Lebanese election system, see Elections in Lebanon).[1][2] Batroun District had 24,331 eligible voters, out of whom 9,458 voted. It had the lowest number of eligible as well as actual voters of all constituencies in the country.[3] Seven candidates contested the election.[1] The constituency witnessed a clash of both organized political parties as well as family interests.[1]

John Harb of the National Liberal Party and Sayid Aql of the Lebanese National Bloc contested on a joint ticket.
