Vote Early and Vote Often

“The electoral officials, at the suggestion of United Nations advisers, said Monday that they were looking into unusually one-sided tallies in 12 of Iraq's 18 provinces, where early returns from the voting on Saturday showed more than 90 percent approval.

The provinces in question are dominated by Shiite Arabs or Kurds, who are generally determined to enshrine the document over the opposition of many Sunni Arabs.”

It’s interesting to see how quickly the people of Iraq have learned to make democracy “work” for them. This reminds me of Ohio in 2004…
