...One big problem remains. Fact: Saudi Arabia is a male dominated society. Fact two: Saudi Arabia is a segregated society in every aspect.

If a single woman won and became a member of the municipality council that would mean the government would have to construct a separate building for her. Whether she is one female, two, or ten, Saudi law forbids men and women to work in the same establishment.

The chances of any institution, government building or private company having men and women working together are dire. The place would be most likely be raided by religious police and would be shut down. The employees would be thrown behind bars and the managers interrogated. Hospitals in Saudi Arabia are the only places where men and women work together and there are many calls from conservatives for segregated hospitals.
