What's new

PMLN completely wiped out in Gilgit Baltistan elections

. .
Was expecting this
I said before IK core followers in KPK ---GB arent going anywhere..though the seats were mainly driven by electables jumping ship

Dont know about situation in karachi-quetta-punjab thougj
This is the local legislature. How many seats in parliament are allocated to GB where IK government is on a very thin majority?
None so far

What govt needs to do is swiftly give GB seats in center and senate thus giving it self a comfortable majority

I doubt any party will object to 2/3 majority required ..doing so will help PTI narrative too..so either way PDM will be in corner

With respect to south punjab make it a province just before election
PTI is the most useless party when handing out tickets. Same mistake was made in 2013 elections too.
Because they are idiots

Just do what every democracy
Does

HOLD PRILIMINARY ELECTIONS

Ask the leaders to hold a mock election who ever gets more votes from public gets
The ticket

I doubt it will be that costly!

Unfortunately I think its probably no more than 2-3 due to their small population (if seats allocation follows the conventional method, which emphasises on population count). Albeit the small gain the biggest importance is for PTI to be able to form the local government there is so that the mir jafar coalition cannot wreak havoc in the newly formed province. The biggest gain though for PTI should they form government, would be that they would easily take away half of the senators from GB, further solidifying their influence in the senate. [Though not sure if GB will be allocated any senate seats in time for the next senate elections in march].

Yes i beieve there will be 3 seats based upon their population
But senate they might grab disporportionaltely high seats

Either full 14 or 7

Senate seats are as important as they can be used for legislative purposes

PTI refused to give tickets to 5 independents who also beat PTI candidates :D
Btw, PMLN is not winning on Geo News either :D

Sir a silly question from me what if independent candidates won more seats than others can they make govt ?

Tonight Nawaz and family will drown their sorrows in some good reki and sad bağlama music. LMAO.

It could had been better if PTI would had taken 2 more seats. anyways 5 out of those 7 INDPs will join PTI. PTI needs 16 seats to make the govt. PTI made seat adjustment with MWM over 2 seats and out of which 1 won by MWM so practically PTI has 10 seats. Its a good score but it could had been terrific had they won 1-2 more seats. 4 seats won by PPP is not that bad considering they just had 1 seat in 2015 elections. Bilawal massive campaigning did the trick backed up by media. As far as PMLN is considered, writing on the wall is written all over the country despite of so much attention given to them by the media. They are failing be it in elections or when it comes to their narrative.

Moving forward, GB result will give confidence to the PTI and I am expecting IK to became more aggressive against PDM after all its IK who has the last laugh.

4-5 independent candidates belong to PTI who didn't get party ticket. Even if opposition manages to woo other two they still don't have the numbers. Also independents never join loosing parties bcz that is just pointless.

Ary news is reporting that PTI managed to win 1 more seat after recount. Earlier that seat was given to PPP.
So PTI now has 10 where as PPP 3. PTI already had seat adjustment on 2 seats with MWM so technically PTI has 11 seats in total out of 23. Out of 7 INDPs, 5 are most likely to join PTI as well.

PTI needs 13 seats overall to form government. Out of 7, 5 ind are pti own people and other 2 will join them most likely. Add 1 MWM seat aswell.
Same candidate won both GBLA 1 and 4 for PPP, will have to vacate on one seat. So there will be polls on 2 seats ( GBLA 3 and the vacated one).
