Election results are SUPPOSED to be released in about a half hour…



Will they be released? We will see!

As of right now it looks like Allawi is leading by votes, but Maliki is ahead in blocs.

A HUGE wrench in the works is this:

BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Four blocs that participated in Iraq’s recent parliamentary election announced on Friday that they reject the results that will be announced later in the day.

“The four lists of Iraqi Communist Party, Iraqi Unity, al-Umma al-Iraqiya, and Liberals Party entirely reject election results,” Mofeed al-Jazairi, a high-ranking figure of the Iraqi Communist Party, said at a joint press conference in Baghdad.

He said that the four blocs demand the Independent High Electoral Commission (IHEC) in Iraq to recount votes manually under trustful local and international observation.

And also this:

At least one Iraqi news paper revealed that with the recount of 99% of the votes (except Australia) and Allawi still leads the votes. The news paper also revealed that 39 IHEC’s employers caught “red-handed inserting wrong names to the data base of the voting system. The 39 persons admitted that they tried to manipulate the results for the benefit of three prominent coalitions, no further details announced.

I’m honestly hoping that my post yesterday proves to be wrong, but it’s a waiting game for now.

More to come!

    Well, whatever the results are, and while the politicians make up their minds, the CBI should revalue the Dinar… we are needing that for yesterday.
