The opposition threatened people not to vote. Then they claim that a low turnout signals support for their boycott.

Voter turnout in 2009 was HIGHER than 2005. 61% versus barely 50% in 2005.

Hmph. I see that they are calling 1.8 million votes out of 4.6 million registered a turnout of 61%. That doesn’t compute.

... or is it that the 1.8 million votes is based on incomplete results, and is expected to rise?
