Hey, I've got some dumba$$ trying to diss this election thing.

I tell him that 72% of Iraqis turned out to vote in the election.

He says, "Big deal. Only 2% of Iraqis registered to vote.

1) I told him the percentage turnout of REGISTERED voters is the
STANDARD for judging turnout.

2) I am in doubt about that paltry number. How many Iraqis voted?
How many votes were cast?

Anybody???

[Howlin]

What do you mean? I'm hearing 72, but is it only registered voters?

[No Blue States]

I read somehwere that 13 million were Registered.

[JCRoberts]

My understanding is that 14-million Iraqis registered to vote. If we assume 25-million iraqis, that's a little less than 60-percent. That's according to CNN scroll. However, I don't know how many Iraqis are 18+, so it's obvously larger than 60%.

Ask him what's his point?
Everybody that wanted to vote is voting.
Registration is a non-issue at this point.

I think the registration #'s were in the 90% range of eligible voters.
