EARLY ELECTION RESULTS are coming out in Iraq. Omar has a report, and people aren’t happy about how well the religious parties did. Here’s more from Kerry DuPont.

Note that, as Omar reported yesterday, the preliminary results leaking out aren’t official, aren’t complete, and seem to be being leaked as an effort to stir things up on behalf of various factions. So stay tuned to see how things develop.

UPDATE: And, in fact, see Omar’s update to see how fast things change.
