Final results: Sairoon 54, Fateh 47, Nasr 42, SOL 26, KDP 24, Wataniya 20, Hikma 19, PUK 18, Qarar 14. Rest are for smaller parties and minority seats

7 possible scenarios for largest bloc:
1. Abadi + Sadr + Hakim = 115
2. Abadi + Sadr + Hakim + Ameri = 162
3. Abadi + Hakim + Ameri = 108
4. Abadi + Ameri + Maliki = 115
5. Abadi + Sadr + Ameri = 143
6. Abadi + Sadr + Ameri + Hakim + Maliki = 188
7. Sadr + Ameri + Hakim = 120

Slight change to seats as SOL now 25, KDP 25, Wataniya 21. Lots of negotiations underway, and also SC could yet call for a full manual recount

1) Important: The #KDP has rejected sensible recommendations from the International Crisis Group @CrisisGroup on returning stability to #Sinjar so that the #Yazidi people can return home, rebuilding, and have a future. This affair deserves comment.

2) The @CrisisGroup is one of the few analyst entities to produce reasonable suggestions that, in fact, reflect what the Yazidis have been demanding for the past 4 ½ years. They recently recommended that the #Yazidi people choose their own administrative leaders for #Sinjar.

3) Dindar Zebari (pictured in 1st tweet), whose lovely job it is to craft responses to the many reports from around the world that criticize KDP policy and HR record, responded, stating that Sinjar already has a mayor (qaymaqam)—Mahama Khalil—who has been elected by the people.

India became a republic in 1950. And held its first parliamentary elections in 1952. What was so momentous about this event was that a country largely illiterate and unused to democratic process transitioned to universal adult suffrage in a manner unlike any other country.

Close to 80% of the Adult population in India was illiterate at the time of the first general election. And yet every Indian was given the right to vote across the country. A very very radical transition

This is in sharp contrast to say a country like UK, that was NOT a democracy throughout the 16th/17th / 18th centuries - when it had its great Industrial Revolution and managed to lift millions above mere subsistence living for the first time in human history
