Yesterday, millions of Pakistanis expressed their faith in democracy by making their voices heard at the ballot box.
I support @StateDept’s call for an investigation into alleged election interference and urge Pakistan’s leaders to respect the democratic will of the people.
February 8th saw a historic election in Pakistan.
However, I am deeply concerned by the mounting evidence of military interference. I join the @StateDept in calling for a full investigation into any plot to overturn the will of the people.
#PAKWatch🇵🇰: Even though it appears that Imran Khan and the PTI party had a runaway electoral victory, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is working overtime to rig the results and remove Captain Pakistan from the picture.
I echo the @StateDept's call for a full investigation of any claims of election interference or fraud in Pakistan. The people of Pakistan deserve a free and fair opportunity to make their voices heard through the democratic process.

In the latest Pakistani elections, independents backed by the jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan emerged as frontrunners, securing the most seats and surpassing traditional political parties.
The slow vote counting was attributed to the suspension of cell phone services for safety reasons on election day. Out of 235 seats, Khan's supporters won 49, while Nawaz Sharif's party secured 42, and Bilawal Bhutto Zardari's party received 34. Now, former Pakistani Prime Minister, Nawaz Sharif is looking to form a coalition government. #CGTNAmerica
I am continuing to monitor the election in Pakistan and in particular any findings made by independent election observers regarding reports of interference or harassment occurring at the polls. The U.S. must remain committed to ensuring that all our partners uphold the democratic principles we share, including the right of the people to vote in free and fair elections.

Nawaz Sharif is probably not happy with this part of the statement from the State Department: "We now look forward to timely, complete results that reflect the will of the Pakistani people...The United States is prepared to work with the next Pakistani government, regardless of political party, to advance our shared interests."

Despite Nawaz Sharif declaring victory, a huge grassroots turnout of young voters is showing up at voting stations to seemingly push back against military involvement in politics.
