I will now make completly bullsh**t predictions.

State of Law(Maliki)                      29.8% of the vote 39% of the Seats
Iraqi National Movement(Allawi)   20.6% and 23% of seats
National Iraqi Alliance                   15.1% of the vote and 17% of seats
Kurds                                            9.3% of the vote and   12% of seats

I think State of Law is going to benifit from the electoral system in terms of having a much better vote distribution. We saw this last year, where they won 19% of the vote but 29% of the seats in the local elections. Furthermore, with it becoming a 2-horse race, I expect Sadr and Hakim to fade quite abit.

Except that the two horse race across the Shi'a parts of the country, which is the one that matters, is between State of Law and National Iraqi Alliance.

I think that is also explainable by the fact that they won big in Basra and Baghdad, the two major population centres with most seats.

Elections are worthless just as worthless is so-called "Iraqi Government"

So... Shi'a turnout low, Sunni turnout high. Allawi's alliance (which of course includes anti-Americans as well as that "pro-American" leader, don't be misled) winning the Sunni parts, Maliki the Shi'a parts. 30% of the national vote apparently a decent guess.

So refreshing to see Maliki beating the more "Shia" bloc in the Shia provinces and to see Allawi, the secularist Shia, doing so well in the Sunni provinces.

Both are traitors and scums.
