What is happening in Gaza is not a genocide anymore. It’s worse than a holocaust. I don’t know what to call it anymore

[Imran Shafique @imran_adv]

Disappointed to see that despite my opponent from PTI winning the elections in NA-56 with a clear majority, as is evident from Form-45, his victory has been unjustly overturned through a sham process. This is a blatant theft of the people's mandate, and I strongly condemn it.

I am often invited to lecture under-training officers at various state academies about law & ethics. They look so promising as young men & women. Yet in a few years so many of them turn out to be rascals & tormentors of law & ethics. How does this happen?

[The Economist @TheEconomist]

Pakistan’s rigged election was filled with confusion. Despite their strenuous efforts, the country’s generals appear much less in control than they thought https://t.co/n0xh3WkoMl 👇

[Tehran Times @TehranTimes79]

Pakistan stunned as ex-premier #ImranKhan’s party overperforms in election.

[Imperial Illusions @Independent_POV]

Given the scale of the votes for PTI-backed candidates, according to sources the military was unable to “manage” the results for Sharif as planned.

PMLN leader Nawaz Sharif has declared victory. But final results haven't been announced, and results so far show PTI independents still in the lead.
The Army, with its intervention in the electoral process, and now its preferred party have conspired to subvert the public will.

[Kamran Khan @AajKamranKhan]

The United States Govt and the European Union have joined us in questioning the credibility of Yesterday's elections in Pakistan. Meanwhile Nawaz Sharif can continue with his " defeat celebrations"

[The Intercept @theintercept]

Historic turnout in Pakistan is swamping the military’s effort to rig the election https://t.co/HVmqmug1wG by @ryangrim https://t.co/HVmqmug1wG

[Scott Bennett @scottbennetth]

Millions of Pakistanis exercised their democratic right at the ballot box yesterday, demonstrating their faith in democracy.
I stand with @StateDept in advocating for an investigation into alleged election interference and urge Pakistan’s leaders to uphold the democratic will of the people.

[Asad Ali Toor @AsadAToor]

🚨🚨
Who so ever “made” this form 47 definitely not made #PMLN supremo @NawazSharifMNS win but in fact embarrassed him, added 1000 more votes in valid votes portion as compare to total polled votes and 14 candidates even didn’t get one vote. Ridiculous!

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

This is a critical moment for Pakistan.

I am deeply concerned by the growing evidence that the military is interfering and rigging the result to overturn the will of the Pakistani people.

The US should not recognize a winner until all the facts are investigated.

[Sadanand Dhume @dhume]

You don’t have to be an Imran Khan supporter to acknowledge the glaringly obvious fact that he won the people’s mandate fair and square. Hard to respect any commentator or journalist who can’t acknowledge this upfront. #PakistanElection #PakistanElection2024

[Farhan Saeed @farhan_saeed]

It’s rigged and how it’s discussed openly on TV and everyone seems to be ok with it , just speechless .

[Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar @mustafa_nawazk]

مجھے یہ کہنے میں کوئی عار نہیں کہ میں اپنی شکست کو کھلے دل سے تسلیم کرتا ہوں ۔ یہ دیکھ کر افسوس ہوا کہ پی ٹی آئی کے امیدوار علی بخاری کو حلقہ ۴۸ اسلام آباد کی سیٹ ہرا دی گئی ہے جبکہ وہ واضح جیتے ہوئے تھے۔ جن موصوف کو نتیجہ بدل کر جتایا گیا ہے وہ دوڑ میں کہیں بھی نہ تھے۔ اسی طرح شعیب شاہین بھی حلقہ ۴۷ سے واضح برتری کے ساتھ جیت چکے ہیں لیکن نتائج ان کے بھی حوالے نہیں کئیے جا رہے۔ یہ بدترین دھاندلی اور آگ سے کھیلنے کے مترادف ہے۔

[Michael Kugelman @MichaelKugelman]

Tensions are building in Pakistan.
After preliminary election results showed surprising gains by the PTI, the party the military is dead set against returning to power, election results have been delayed for hours.
Vote tampering and rigging fears are rife, and for good reason.

[H. @pseudowitch6]

Please. It’s 12:10 already and all we need is someone from the party to come forward and declare victory. This is what will make it to the headlines abroad, set the air, project the course, build the pressure, make rigging even tougher. Somebody please own it, this is our time!
