Women Candidates Warned
Arab News ^ | Sunday 11 October 2015

Posted on 10/10/2015 9:56:19 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Election officials have warned all 366 registered women candidates against addressing voters directly. They have asked them to appoint agents to do this on their behalf. The officials have also directed these candidates to create separate sections for men and women at their campaign headquarters.

The officials said that violators of gender segregation rules will be fined SR10,000.

The elections will take place between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Dec. 12 with the results being announced the following day.

Judiea Al-Qahtani, the election commission spokesman, has asked all female candidates to acquire permits for their advertising campaigns, and to allocate special sections for men in their election headquarters.

He also requested them to abide by Shariah law by not mixing with men at their election headquarters. He also urged them to avoid publishing their photos in any election campaign material.

Al-Qahtani stressed that both male and female candidates who wish to present their election programs to male voters should appoint representatives or contract special companies to manage their advertising campaigns on their behalf.

“The Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs has a special section for issuing permits to companies that manage advertising campaigns for election candidates,” he said. According to Al-Qahtani, the election commission bylaws define a number of violations that are punishable by imprisonment for up to one year or a fine of SR50,000, or both. These violations include using force or threats to obstruct election procedures or to prevent workers from performing their duties; hiding or destroying election documents or ballot boxes; buying votes or selling them, or offering gifts or money to voters; inflicting harm on election facilities or their technical apparatus; receiving funds from foreign bodies; impersonating others during the voting process; inflicting harm on the election headquarters of other candidates or their advertising campaigns.

Pretty sure Liberals think they will be excluded....

Remember Val Jar calls her self Persian and lists French and Persian as languages on her bio...

A friend who is an Iranian Jew told me those who say Persian align to the Shah and speak Persian

Others aligned to the Ayatollahs speak Farsi

So maybe ValJar has HER own dream of Becoming the Queen of Persia (royal Blood required) and is using everyone to her plan...

Oh my

Valerie Jarrett was born in Iran to two parents from the United States:: James Bowman and Barbara Taylor Bowman. He father was a doctor stationed in Iran. Neither of her parents had a trace of Persian origin. She is 0% ethnically Persian. And since Iran doesn't have birthright citizenship, she is not Persian in any WAY. Sorry.

The funny thing is Valerie Jarrett has a small amount of Native American ancestry. She also has a Jewish great grandfather.

You forgot the dateline (Jeddah), albeit rather obvious from the photo.

Opting to save Kuwait from Iraq was a regrettable brain fart on Poppy Bush's part.

A better strategy would have been to have given Saddam to understand that, as long as he stayed away from the Bomb, and US gas prices stayed reasonable, he could do what he pleases with Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Remember, Saddam was just a dictator. He was not religious — his foreign minister was Christian!

Saddam ruling over the Middle East, the religious police having been fed through wood chippers, and the Royal Family exiled or worse, would, of course, have been a bad an excellent outcome. The death of a worthless ally!

How can you tell one from another? They could vote multiple times and you’d never know.

She and her boss are in bed with the Ayatollahs. That's clear from the Iranian deal. Whoever is against the West is favored among the libtards.

And makes perfect sense, since their mission is to put American into its proper place in the world, which is to say down a couple of rungs. They are traitors, pure and simple.

That would the path of redemption for Iran. I.e., native Persians take over the government, execute the Council of Guardians, and suppress Islam in favor of whatever the appropriate native Persian religion might be and then adopt a modern republican form of government. In our dreams!

I know I’m in late but you folks need to take advantage of these opportunities to go to the source and leave a snide comment on what you think of Islam.
