It's going to be an interesting editorial meeting tonight at the New York Times.

I imagine there will be an angry editorial. It will say, "60% voter turn out means this most recent Iraqi election is a catastrophic failure when you consider that under Saddam Hussein 99.999% of eligible Iraqis voted."

There will probably be a "news" story saying that the voter turn out was "low" because "American soldiers intimidated Iraqi voters."
