-- Marc -- I said they'd win a majority of the seats set aside for general election, and that they have done, both in regional and in the national parliament.
-- Me -- How have they won a majority of the seats set aside for general election? There are 272 general seats. 60 are reserved for women and another 10 are reserved for minority religious groups. That leaves 202 general sets. The fundamentalists have apparently won 14 so far, of 40 reporting. That is not a majority of all the seats and is not a majority of the seats reporting so far. --- JWR --- I have always wondered how there could be a free election in a totalitarian state? By definition, an election would not be free. And if the election is not free, why should we call it democracy? <scratching head> John W.
