| U.N. Election Chief: Iraqi Vote on Track |
| 2004-12-01 |
| Preparations for the Jan. 30 national election are on track despite continuing violence and calls for delaying or boycotting the vote, the U.N. election chief in Iraq says. "I won't say I am happy, but I am satisfied with the process," Carlos Valenzuela told The Associated Press in an interview. "People tend to have these very unrealistic expectations about elections. ... They are not a panacea, but they seem to me at least at this moment the one way to go that would help the transitional process" in Iraq. I posted this in response to Goher's comment at Allawi in Jordan for meetings If even the UN is happy, things must be pretty good. |
