NA-122 Lahore Election Updates - Far Reaching Effects on Pak Politics

[IceCold]

Congratulations to Ayaz Sadiq. Will he retake the position as Speaker of the house or not?

PTI gave PML a run for their money and took away the provincial seat so they deserve an applause as well.

 

[Asian.Century]

Crore Rupees thrown on Lahore NA122 election to reduce to losing margin by 3000 votes! That must hurt !

 

[WishLivePak]

why the low voter turnout ?

By election.

Turnout is around 150,000-175,000

 

[Raja.Pakistani]

is the situation like 2013 where candidate was IK against Ayaz Sadiq and there was no direct government federal or provincial of pmln???PTI proved rigging in election tribunal where it was to be proven and 3000 margin that to against Aleem Khan is a hint what went on in 2013.

PTI can perceive this result as their victory but for me its defeat of massive rigging claim of Imran khan in this constituency.Imran khan, Sheikh rahseed, ch sarwar and every other pti senior leader was doing election campaign on behalf of aleem khan so it was not just aleem khan vs ayaz sadiq

Of course he will. He's now a lion of PML because he won re election despite being labeled so many names and accused of rigging.

His mandate just got reinforced.

why the low voter turnout ?

Could be due to it being by elections, could be lack of interest due to general perception of seats mostly going to those that win it there before, could be bcz people believe both of them tonbe corrupt...

 

[Sugarcane]

and who should we thank for sectarian sanctuaries and holding of the death plenty,Khanzadas murder after he took out Head of Jhangvi etc etc for???

Come on, be a man and accept that just bitching around, whining and saying Zardari is better in controlling corruption is not enough to get votes.

not over till it is over

 

[Musafir117]

It was very close if PTI saying they have strong majority in Lahore they are not wrong.

apple and oranges janab as i said it was not just Alemm Khan vs Ayaz Sadiq but Aleem Khan vs federal and provincial government+Federal and provincial cabinet BISP wali bibi with support rishwat,Khawaja Railway,Hanif Abbasi list goes on and on

and after spending half of the budge of punjab on Lahore this is waht pmln has to show for ??? gives you a hint waht went on in 2013 IK vs Ayaz Sadiq and no federal and provincial governments to help pmln

They've no shame.

I wish it was one sided. Either Pml won all seats or Pti won all seats. Pti winning pp will be seen as victory.

To be honest I wanted Pti to win both seats because so they put pressure on Pml. But close election can still be wake up call for Ptml

 

[Sulman Badshah]

Congratulation to PMLN for winning National assembly seat

and

Congratulation to PTI for winning both Provincial assemblies seats

it was a close competition

 

[silent hawk]

AAJ announcing all results

PML-N victorious

I hope PTI will accept results.

Unofficial/Unverified results. PMLN only secured NA-122 from just 3,000 - 3,500 margin (Not good for PMLN from Lahore). Their previous results was way beyond 9,000 and somewhere more than that. 147, and other polling station, PMLN lost from PTI and IND. This is damn dangerous for PMLN. Why they only secured NA-122 with no big margin. Again, The election is at least FAIR under Military supervision. No more rigging allegation (If there is, ignore few % of rigging). PTI must retain this votes and PMLN must think why they lost all other areas and also not win against PTI with big margin.

why the low voter turnout ?

Media reports ppl were threaten by Saad Rafique can be checked.. and its by election on 30% turn out

PTI can perceive this result as their victory but for me its defeat of massive rigging claim of Imran khan in this constituency.Imran khan, Sheikh rahseed, ch sarwar and every other pti senior leader was doing election campaign on behalf of aleem khan so it was not just aleem khan vs ayaz sadiq

And 30+ federal ministers and punjab government was working 24/7 in NA122 to make sure PMLN will win... Aleem Khan and PTI used their own money unlike PMLN who fully used government resources just once example is Pakistan Information Ministry was used as PMLN Party headquarter and PTV was used as PMLN TV Station
