Jokes:

 

The PPP needs to lose less than 10%---it's more like 6.4%

 

Let's look at the results in the last election:

 

PPP...48.6%

 

PNC...40.8%

 

AFC...10.3%

 

 

Now, if the AFC under Moses can get 15%---that's 4.7% more than in 2011, and let's assume that they pull all of that 4.7% from the PPP, then you'll have:

 

PPP...43.9%

 

PNC...40.8%

 

AFC...15.0%

 

So the PPP will still control the executive branch.

 

For the PNC to control the executive branch they will need to increase their % by 1.7%--- from 40.8% to 42.5%---and they will have to pull that 1.7% away from the PPP.

 

That brings us to:

 

PPP...42.2%

 

PNC...42.5% = PNC win

 

AFC...15.0%

 

 

CONCLUSION:

 

* Assuming the same turnout

 

* If the AFC gets 15% of the vote

 

* If the PNC gets an additional 1.7%

 

THEN THE PNC WILL FORM THE NEXT GOVERNMENT!

 

A vote for Moses and the AFC is a vote for the PNC to form the next government.

The last time you were playing with numbers you said Romney will win, no? BTW, my generation have no fear of the blackman. Turnover is healthy for a fledgling democracy.
