Perhaps there is nothing to gain, will look further in to areas and give my view.
Django, you were crowing like a rooster about the LGE and PPP not holding them as scheduled. Now that the PNC conducted an LGE, you start your mantra that it is not the general election. Where are you heading? Why an LGE when it's almost insignificant? A 4% is 4%. AFC manipulated the statistics to camouflage their poor showing. Let the AFC accept defeat and move on. They are not even a 5% party. Let them take the next night bus and escape out of town.
That's the PPP wish, sorry they will be around to be the check mate.At the least the PPP didn't complain the last two LGE was rigged, they are winning at the local level.Regarding why the AFC didn't contest the 57 LAA, one have to look deeper.
I mentioned many times LGE is good for local democracy, it gives the people power in the low tier administration.When one understand the differences of voting methods and constituency seats used in LGE and General Elections, the picture becomes clearer. Winning LGE doesn't guarantee winning GE.
