Politics - Pakistani 2018 General Election and post-election discussion

[Mian]

Bilawal is coming THIRD in Lyari! PTI first, PSP second. I am surprised ...

Would love to see that happening

 

[Mueez]

Samaa just releasing some official results, and surprisingly, PTI have swept about half of Karachi. All the seats from NA-242 to 249 are being led by PTI!!!

As I already had said, I am expecting more comebacks by PTI.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

this software glitch has definitely put a grey cloud over these elections...

There have been media stories all week about how the army are rigging the elections in favour of IK even in the British media so that cloud was there regardless of any software glitch.

 

[Couch Cricketer]

I didnt go to sleep expecting the results now have to get ready for work in 2 hours

 

[Badsha]

PTI has 125+ seats add pmlq Amq bap few idependents will be enough

125 is an AMAZING result for PTI. PTI will most likely have 105.. but even with 90+ can form coalition.

 

[Strike!]

Wow.

 

[Mian]

Samaa breaking PTI sweeping Karachi? really?

 

[Yossarian]

BBC Newsnight just finished:

American interviewee (ex- State Department): "Americans don't like Imran Khan" (meaning the military, the Establishment etc. and not just the public. Even though 99% of the American public probably doesn't even know who he is. And they still don't like him? )

Even the BBC is pushing the agenda that he's Pakistan military's man. And is 'Taliban friendly'.

Some fat, ugly looking tart, appearing to have had a failed attempt at liposuction, and trying to look 'Westernised' by colouring her hair and slapping on bucketloads of paint in lieu of makeup, and claiming to be a Pakistani academic, being the other interviewee on Newsnight, also claimed that IK is under the spell of his new wife who's got him into believing in Jinns, and that she's the one (the new wife) running the show.

I'm not into Pakistani politics, and don't support any party, so don't claim I'm biased. I'm just reporting what I heard and saw.

 

[hussain.r97]

Official now it seems. Things changing every minute.

Now I am hearing that PTI are ahead on NA-256 too.

 

[enkidu_]

Bilawal is coming THIRD in Lyari! PTI first, PSP second. I am surprised ...

Indeed... isn't that Bibi who said something like "when Lyari will abandon PPP, consider PPP to be dead" ?

 

[hussain.r97]

If PTI sweeps up these 9 seats mentioned by Samaa in Karachi, PTI will take 115+ seats.

 

[MachoKhan]

Is the software fixed? If not how long?

 

[Pakpak]

BBC's coverage has been abysmal. Their sources are all Geo and idiots like Murtaza Shah and Talat Hussain.

 

[hussain.r97]

Khawaja Asif and Usman Dar very tight, Khawaja Asif has taken a small lead.

 

[Mueez]

Usman Dar trailing by 700 votes!

 

[enkidu_]

 

[hussain.r97]

Miftah Ismail trailing Ali Zaidi in NA-244.

 

[Couch Cricketer]

125 is an AMAZING result for PTI. PTI will most likely have 105.. but even with 90+ can form coalition.

They have sweeped kpk and lot of seats in Karachi as well how well they do Punjab will tell if 110 or 125

 

[Bewal Express]

Samaa was on 120, now down to 118.

 

[enkidu_]

[Strike!]

‏‎سوال: عمران خان نے کے پی کے میں کیا کر لیا؟

جواب: کلین سوئیپ

 

[hussain.r97]

Samaa was on 120, now down to 118.

Yup, because Usman Dar is trailing now, and Khurram Dastagir Khan took the lead on his seat.

 

[hussain.r97]

A sudden rush of results coming in now on Samaa.

 

[Strike!]

Khurram dastagir has already won according to one channel.

 

[Bewal Express]

REALLY want to see Khwaja Asif lose.

He was the gorm that tried to damage SKMH.

 

[hussain.r97]

Samaa are commenting that "it looks like Karachi have decided to join national politics now".

 

[hussain.r97]

Samaa saying "tsunami in Karachi".

 

[Badsha]

oh noooooo Usman Dar

[hussain.r97]

Maulana Fazlur Rehman set to lose both his seats.

 

[enkidu_]

He was the gorm that tried to damage SKMH.

Yep. Don't know which is the PML N "leader" I want to go down the most tbh. Haji Rana, Abid Sher Ali, ... so many of them.

 

[Mian]

TLP 2nd in Layari and PTI leading, Bilawal losing

 

[Strike!]

Legendary chithrol of EC by Klasra on 92 news.

 

[hussain.r97]

PTI exceeding all expectations in Karachi. I said PTI will take a absolute maximum of 8 seats, but now they are looking at taking even more!

PTI leading in Lyari with 30% of the vote in.

 

[hussain.r97]

Even DAWN have increased their projection now.

PTI ahead on 3 seats in Gujranwala.

Only 2. PTI losing on 4 seats. PTI leading only on 79, 80, From 81 to 84 it's N league.

 

[Badsha]

[Mueez]

Is the software fixed now? Plz reply anyone

Nope.
The results are on their way to ECP.

 

[Badsha]

Only 2. PTI losing on 4 seats. PTI leading only on 79, 80, From 81 to 84 it's N league.

where did you get this? Man seems like N is making a comeback

 

[hussain.r97]

PTI leading on 11 seats in Karachi! This is too good to be true

WHAT IS GOING ON!! 12 seats now

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Is the software fixed now? Plz reply anyone

No, they are taking an alternative route

 

[Naim]

Gandapur leading by 16.000 votes.

Bye Diesel!

Good going ali ameen . In our village diesel got only 28 votes .

 

[Mueez]

where did you get this? Man seems like N is making a comeback

You are way too pessimistic yaarr.

Relax man.

 

[Mian]

Yeh Kamran Khan mere mu se ab kuch or sunega is se bera lifafa mene kabhi nae dekha he is crying from last 2 hours pointing fingers and calling it rigging

 

[Strike!]

where did you get this? Man seems like N is making a comeback

Just relax dude, PTI will comfortably make government in centre..

Worry about Punjab for now.

 

[hussain.r97]

If PTI even wins 7 out of 12 of these Karachi seats they are leading on, that is HUGE! We were only expecting 4.

 

[MachoKhan]

How long for the alternative route ? When will final result come ?

 

[Arsal_AK]

The Karachi results. Unbelievable. PTI leading on 11 seats, let that sink in, 11.

 

[Badsha]

You are way too pessimistic yaarr.

Relax man.

I have waited 13 years for this since I started supporting Imran Khan. We are so so so close right now. I can't believe we have a chance...

 

[PakWarrior]

Something remarkable is about to happen in Karachi.

I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY ARE LEADING IN 11 SEATS IN KARACHI!!!

 

[hussain.r97]

The Karachi results. Unbelievable. PTI leading on 11 seats, let that sink in, 11.

Not 11 anymore, 12 seats!!!!!

 

[Sirris]

Just found out how incompetent some presiding officer can be. One such presiding officer lady had no clue how to use a phone and she was supposed to submit the results by it. There were training courses however she registered her attendance while skipping the course.

With such incompetent staff with unprofessional attitude hiccups are bound to happen.

 

[Badsha]

Just relax dude, PTI will comfortably make government in centre..

Worry about Punjab for now.

only 20-30 percent results in though. Never know. inshaAllah hope we make both punjab and central

 

[Sirris]

I have waited 13 years for this since I started supporting Imran Khan. We are so so so close right now. I can't believe we have a chance...

If there was ever a time to be optimistic about reaching your long desired goal. This is the one!

 

[hussain.r97]

PSP has turned out to be a complete flop. Mustafa Kamal is not even coming 2nd on his seat.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Meanwhile they are wrecking havoc in KPK, Faisalabad and the Potwar belt.

Asad has won from NA-54, that I can tell you, if it wasnt obvious enough.

 

[Badsha]

If there was ever a time to be optimistic about reaching your long desired goal. This is the one!

I just don't want to get carried away. 2013 hurt so, so much...

 

[PakWarrior]

We could be heading for 125 to 130 seats.

This would be a great achievement.

 

[hussain.r97]

A lot of people in Karachi told me that Karachi is about to give a big surprise, but I just thought they were being optimistic!!!

 

[Arsal_AK]

Lahore and Sailkot are too close to call. Dr. Yasmin is behind in Lahore and that is sad. She has put so much into the campaign, she should win.

 

[waqar goraya]

where did you get this? Man seems like N is making a comeback

From news channels. N league have huge lead in NA 81 (Khurrm Dastgir) , NA 83 and NA 84 where as slight lead in NA82.

In Sialkot also PTI is only leading in one seat out of 5. Dars trailing by few hundreds too.

 

[PakWarrior]

I just don't want to get carried away. 2013 hurt so, so much...

Are you ok?

It is now crystal clear that PTI are going to win 110 seats minimum and Imran is going to be PM.

You can banish the ghost of 2013 now and start to get excited.

 

[Strike!]

PTI will now be under severe pressure to perform in Karachi if they win..

 

[Mueez]

We could be heading for 125 to 130 seats.

This would be a great achievement.

InshaAllah!
Quite likely if PTI carry on like this.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

We could be heading for 125 to 130 seats.

This would be a great achievement.

Don't think we will get 125-130...115-120 is more realistic which is still a great achievement.

Remember we need to add PMLQ and AML

 

[Couch Cricketer]

PSP has turned out to be a complete flop. Mustafa Kamal is not even coming 2nd on his seat.

Psp did it's job of breaking up mqm vote bank

 

[hussain.r97]

Dr Arif Alvi winning by a landslide.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

PSP has turned out to be a complete flop. Mustafa Kamal is not even coming 2nd on his seat.

I thought PSP would get at least 2 seats but doesn't seem so. Even Mustafa Kamal is losing.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Not 11 anymore, 12 seats!!!!!

Damn.

Shocking doesnt even cover it. Its historic and this is after atleast 30% vote in, so a good chance that it holds.

 

[hussain.r97]

Don't think we will get 125-130...115-120 is more realistic which is still a great achievement.

Remember we need to add PMLQ and AML

Bhai, if we win 10+ seats from Karachi, we could be heading for 125.

 

[Badsha]

Are you ok?

It is now crystal clear that PTI are going to win 110 seats minimum and Imran is going to be PM.

You can banish the ghost of 2013 now and start to get excited.

This ECP thing is scaring me...

 

[waqar goraya]

Lahore and Sailkot are too close to call. Dr. Yasmin is behind in Lahore and that is sad. She has put so much into the campaign, she should win.

Losing on most seats in Sialkot.
