The 1948 Lebanese presidential election was the third presidential election, which was held as parliamentary session on 27 May 1948. The Constitutional Bechara El Khoury was re-elected as the president of Lebanon.[1]
The President is elected by the Members of Parliament. He needs a two-thirds majority to win in the first round, while an absolute majority is enough in the second round. He is always a Maronite Christian by convention.[citation needed]
47 out of 55 deputies attended the session headed by Speaker Sabri Hamadeh. They all elected the incumbent president Bechara El Khoury.[2]
