My understanding is different. PM election will not be from 270 seats, it will be from total occupied seats in NA (including women and minorities seats). See 91(4) below for PM election process.
Total seats are 342. Occupied seats (1 count) only vote.
For forming the government, 172 seats are required.
Getting elected as PM is the easy part, forming the government not so easy.
MQM plus all 10 minorities seats required to form a government. This is assuming all 13 independents join PTI, plus GDA plus AML plus BAP etc. That way if no major upsets in by-elections the majority is retained.
Article: 91 The Cabinet
1[91. The Cabinet.—(1) There shall be a Cabinet of Ministers, with the Prime Minister at its head, to aid and advise the President in the exercise of his functions.
(2) The National Assembly shall meet on the twenty-first day following the day on which a general election to the Assembly is held, unless sooner summoned by the President.
(3) After the election of the Speaker and the Deputy Speaker, the National Assembly shall, to the exclusion of any other business, proceed to elect without debate one of its Muslim members to be the Prime Minister.
(4) The Prime Minister shall be elected by the votes of the majority of the total membership of the National Assembly:
Provided that, if no member secures such majority in the first poll, a second poll shall be held between the members who secure the two highest numbers of votes in the first poll and the member who secures a majority of votes of the members present and voting shall be declared to have been elected as Prime Minister:
Provided further that, if the number of votes secured by two or more members securing the highest number of votes is equal, further poll shall be held between them until one of them secures a majority of votes of the members present and voting.
Useless pieces of shit not required.. he blackmailed KP government too much..
So now we have some clarity..First of all... Multiple seats only count in deciding Women and Minority seats.
For PM CM election, Every member counts as one.
Yasmeen Rahid looks like winning her seat, AlhamduLillahe Rabbil Aalameen, I prayed for her win from the heart and am rooting for her to win all the way, In sha Allah!!!
Out of all those who lost in Elections 2018, my heart sank when Dr. Yasmeen Rashid lost her NA election from Lahore. Just looking at her opponent shows that at least half of the people of that constituency are indeed brain dead zombies due to ill effects of years of drinking sewer contaminated water as well as raised on "lion's-kill" leftovers and scraps from looting exchequers...like our friends here on PDF; Tammo Rani and Champoo Usmani.
I hope she gets the slot of CM Punjab. It also seems that IK trusts her loyalty and dedication and rightfully so. I hope she gets a chance to prove her management and leadership skills.
IK decides to keep Mianwali Seat and vacate seats from Lahore, Karachi, Bannu and Islamabad for by-elections.
Apparently IK promised Mianwali people that he will retain that seat this time around.
Vacating Lahore seat is a good move too. Now, all odds should be stacked against Khwaja Saad PARAGON Rafique by PTI's sitting Government and PTI should return him his own medicine too in by-elections - the same odds and playing field he doled out to PTI in 2013. That is, if he survives NAB investigation and case to be filed against him on PARAGON Housing scam.
I'm sure we all quite enjoyed his crying, squeaking and squealing these past few days. Lets hope and pray for a repeat of the same as happened to him on 25th July with an even bigger margin this time around... I'm sure it can all be arranged and so it should be, he above all - deserves it.
IF PTI is in power in Punjab, he will get what he deserves BUT if somehow PTI cannot form Govt. in Punjab, it will be like handing the seat over to N.
People in Punjab tends to fall for the one who is in power and even if PTI has the Fed. Govt., chances are that people will bow down to these haramkhors. remember that IKs winning margin was just 600+ and it was a tough match without N in power in Punjab.
On the other hand if PTI forms Punjab Govt. then I think, it will be just like how you described and SR will be doing all the above and beyond.
