Kamal Jumblatt
Chamoun's Sunni Muslim candidates were Issam al-Hajjar and Hassan al-Qa'qur. The 36-year-old lawyer al-Hajjar had been elected to parliament in the 1960 election, but then as a candidate of Kamal Jumblatt. Al-Qa'qur worked in the civil service, who had made a previous attempt to run for parliament in the 1964 election.
