Does th 72% voting
include those only voting in Iraq or does that include those voting from other countries? That could make a difference.

1. It's probably only those voting outside Iraq
which was something like 10% of those eligible who actually registered.

2. Don't know but...
my understanding is that is the percentage of registered voters and only 10% of the adult population is registered.
Puts the numbers into context doesn't it?

3. Well, if 90% of Shias and Kurds voted
that puts the Sunni vote well below half.

4. "72%" is so this morning! We're already down to "maybe up to 60%"
And MSNBC apparently has just said 50%.

5. Considering all the intimidation prior to the election
a 72% turnout is more than I was expecting
