Iraqis remain deeply divided ... The country's Shiite majority - some 60 per cent of its 27 million people - and the Kurds - another 20 per cent - support the charter.

Only in AP's alternate universe is 80 percent "deeply divided".

Does anyone know when voting will be complete and how long it will take to tally?

I'm really hoping this Constitution passes muster because it rejects Sharia Islamic law and requires that 25% of Iraq's congressional seats be reserved for women. That's more liberal than our own Constitution which should absolutely send the left over the edge. LOL

Maybe AP should do some research re the "deep divisions" during America's constitutional ratification process. Any FReepers have any stats on the ratification of our constitution way back in the late 18th century?
