Lamia El Aaraje (born 22 November 1986) is a Moroccan-born French politician who briefly represented the 15th constituency of Paris in the National Assembly from 2021 to 2022. She has been a Paris Councillor since 2014.
A member of the Socialist Party (PS), she was elected in a 6 June 2021 by-election following the resignation of George Pau-Langevin.[1] On 28 January 2022, the Constitutional Council nullified her election, ruling it was held irregularly. The seat remained vacant until the June 2022 legislative election, in which El Aaraje competed again, but was defeated by Danielle Simonnet of La France Insoumise (FI).
