Then why did Punjab go to PMLN in 2013?

cause SS improved GT road cities so they got votes for both federal and Province

No, the previous term from 2008 to 2013 was that of Pervaiz Elahi, and he supposedly did a competent job and having all the resources at his disposal still lost out to PMLN/SS...so pray tell how will PE keep PMLN at bay in 2023 as being argued by many here just by being the CM in the last year and a half?

2008-2013 was SS... and they came because of the anti-Musharraf tide - all the PML-Q members became Lotas during that time period and fled to PMLN,PTI some PPP
He cant- as per reports PTI is probably losing its federal government

Sorry, my timeline was off, meant to say in 2008 why was SS able to co-opt PE when PE had a successful run as CM and had the resources to win another term.

Bro what's especially funny to me is that Ch Pervaiz Elahi did an interview just a few days ago insulting PTI and IK on live TV. He made a comment about establishment changing nappies of Imran and his party for 3 years and now they wont anymore. A few days ago this man was part of the corrupt, foreign backed, paid off by America pact against PTI. Today's he's on his way to be CM. Lmao.

So true. And this has been done by many people that you see around IK. Take Fawad Chaudhry, for instance.

I think nobody actually respects IK & his thinking. It is just a mela-shela of power just because he was the chosen one. Now that anyone but the most die-hard loyalists can clearly see the dynamics, it looks like a circus packing up. Chaudhries are power players. They can not function otherwise & we saw them flounder in 2013. They are given a second life only because it was necessary to cobble an Anti-Sharif coalition. On their own steam, neither Chaudhries nor IK can manage to stay in power. Its been a sobering spectacle from 2014 until now. I recall writing passionately about IK & change before 2014. If only he had concentrated on PTI instead of lusting after power, he would be an independent force to reckon with. A bit of pragmatism & a good bit of hard work could have done wonders. Alas.

Man who won 150+ seats is being haggled by people with 4-5 seats , that is Pakistani politics in nutshell

Earlier today he decided to postpone his resignation as Speaker. So he might had some prior indication.

But here is where things get interesting
Punjab seats are now less than in past (141 vs 131 for rest of country)
Even if you completely dominate one province you cant form a strong government

The dynamics of 2013 are over now

Wow so much confidence when you have 164 members in total . ……

By the way Maryam is speaking to what seems like a funeral procession on TV right now …

This is what the most likely scenario looks like right now.

We can count on 1-2 BAP members coming back to PTI.

Leaves the Supreme Court decision as the only missing link . View attachment 828216



Not sure if Chema is included in this or not

Rigging.

Rigging.

Can never win 2/3rd majority just by rigging...

Rigging only gives you that 15% edge

After that it's suspicious
