Tuesday 13 Iraqis Killed, 19 Wounded

At least 13 Iraqis were killed and 19 more were wounded in various attacks. The worst one took place just south of Baghdad. Meanwhile, former P.M. Ayad Allawi’s political bloc took the lead in the vote count. A candidate from P.M. Nouri al-Maliki’s State of Law bloc said the prime minister has complained to the electoral commission about vote manipulation and asked for a recount. Fraud accusations have been lobbed before, mostly by the opposition Iraqiya bloc, but now Iraqiya has pulled slightly ahead in total vote count. State of Law still leads province-by-province, which is the more crucial count. Independent and international observers have found no evidence of widespread fraud.
