Politics - Pakistani 2018 General Election and post-election discussion

[Bewal Express]

Dawn estimates 111/63 NA seats for PTI/PML N respectively, Geo 112/64 and Samaa 121/46.

A big difference.

 

[hussain.r97]

Huge qualifier on the Samaa 242-249 thing. NA243 and NA 244 are around 15-20%. That could change a lot, this is a huge area, with many different areas.

There are also many seats they are mentioning with 30-40% counted.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Express News reporting 126 seats for PTI!!!

 

[enkidu_]

Wasn't Lyari a PPP heartland in Karachi?

Yes, and I also paraphrased that famous Bibi quote earlier "the day PPP loses Lyari, consider PPP to be dead".

 

[Badsha]

Did he really do that ....??? Over confidemce I see ..

" PTI MashAllah itni bari jamaat hai. un ka purana voter sirf is liye mujhe vote dega Kay un Kay MNA MPA nay meray ilaqay main koi kaam nahi kia"

" PTI ko apni karkardagi pay bharosa hona chaiye"

His general tone has been very negative towards PTI

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Samaa reporting 122 seats for PTI!

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Yes, no one else has ever won it!!! It is a second Larkana for PPP, this is the biggest upset of the election if true.

Wasn't bilawal standing in this seat as BB won from here?

This is massive!!

 

[PakWarrior]

BREAKING NEWS:

PTI on course to win between 127 to 132 seats.

Wowww!!!

 

[waqar goraya]

Lohay k chanay losing

 

[InziRules]

There are also many seats they are mentioning with 30-40% counted.

Yes, but MQM's seat count is up to 8 on Samaa, which makes no sense with them wining nothing in 242-249.

https://twitter.com/abidifactor/status/1022258597248593920

Abidi's last tweet is more positive, so this could not be over.

Come on.... Her is hoping that we can sneak close to 142!!

Let's see what happens, this could get really interesting.

 

[hussain.r97]

Come on.... Her is hoping that we can sneak close to 142!!

I think your prediction may end up the closest

 

[PakWarrior]

PTI are performing better than we thought and smashing all predictions and Roshan or whatever surveys!!!!

 

[Badsha]

sama has pti at 126!

 

[hussain.r97]

PTI up to 126 on Samaa! MQM down to 6 [MENTION=146217]InziRules[/MENTION]

 

[InziRules]

Let's see what happens, this could get really interesting.

Definitely. I can see MQM losing North Nazimabad and 243.

I don't see them losing the Amir Liaquat seat, but we'll know. It's possible, but it just still seems absolutely weird

 

[InziRules]

PTI up to 126 on Samaa! MQM down to 6 [MENTION=146217]InziRules[/MENTION]

MQM was down to 3 after the NA242 to NA249 thing btw

 

[PakWarrior]

More BREAKING NEWS:

All final results expected within the next 1 hour!!!!

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Yes, and I also paraphrased that famous Bibi quote earlier "the day PPP loses Lyari, consider PPP to be dead".

I am in shock. PPP is dead!

 

[Strike!]

It would be great if PTI can surpass N leagues 124 from 2013.

 

[PakWarrior]

I repeat:

PTI EXPECTED TO WIN BETWEEN 127 TO 132 SEATS!!!!

 

[hussain.r97]

What is this war thing on Samaa?

 

[Badsha]

Kamran Khan ki phati hui shakl dekh kar maza agaya

Almost as annoying as the selfie.

 

[Badsha]

What is this war thing on Samaa?

They have been the most entertaining!!

 

[InziRules]

I would recommend everyone switch to Geo for 5 minutes every hour.

It's like they're in mourning

 

[Arsal_AK]

Say what you want about Amir Liaqat but this guy just pulled of a big victory and IK's decision turned out to be correct.

Nope. If the results are correct, anyother candidate would have won, probably with more votes.

People voted for PTI.

Does geo have live feed?

Yes. On their YouTube channel.

 

[InziRules]

PPP is a more national party than Noon League. Noon is a Punjabi party, and almost always has been. They're hated in Sindh, Karachi, most of Balochistan and now most of KPK as well.

Add north and southern Punjab to that...

 

[hussain.r97]

PTI have won so many seats in KPK assembly that there isn't really much of an opposition now

Imran Khan leading by 14K votes against Khawaja Saad

Ya Allah tera shukar.

 

[InziRules]

Lol, seriously though.

PPP has some presence in Punjab, KPK and even Balochistan. I dare a PML-N candidate to walk around Karachi in public, and around Balochistan in public. He'd be abused in one place, and smashed to pieces in Balochistan. Even KPK now hates them.

 

[Badsha]

When was the last time a govt made Punjab, KPK and National?

 

[hussain.r97]

Lyari NA-246

PTI 18000
TLP ?

This would be a good time to invest into Pakistani stocks btw... which I think I will do.

 

[hussain.r97]

Imran Khan, Dr Arif Alvi, and Najeeb Haroon now taking substantial leads in their Karachi constituencies. Amir Liaquat in the lead too.

 

[InziRules]

Okay, going to sleep, hope it doesn't change by morning

He is ahead by 1k vote

 

[hussain.r97]

NA-245 Karachi East IV
Amir Liaquat Hussain - 17000
Farooq Sattar - 8000

 

[PakLFC]

The results are a mess as always. Everyone is protesting about them on TV.

 

[hussain.r97]

The number of seats being won by PTI is similar to what PML-N won in 2013, but this is a much better victory. PTI have proven to be a national level party, winning seats from every corner of the country!

 

[enkidu_]

Nice! I really want him and Dr Yasmin Rashid to win (would be harder in her case I think)

In another dimension, Dr sahab leading with nearly 10 000 (20% counted) as per Samaa.

Mango for Farooq Sattar soon.

[hussain.r97]

Karachi is basically fulfilling the expectations that PTI had for Lahore.

Karachi was always more conductive to PTI, but MQM under Altaf did not allow for an environment where PTI could win. Without Altaf, Karachiites have campaigned with absolute freedom, no fear, and they have chosen the party and ideology that resonates with them the most.
