Elections

I'm sleeping, don't wake me up.

"There was little drama about the outcome. Pre-election horse-trading and backroom alliances meant that nine of the 19 seats were uncontested, and there was little real opposition ... for control of the rest. Outside polling stations, voters were handed small squares of paper with [a] political list written on them, making voting as easy as stuffing the pre-printed ballots into brown envelopes ready for the ballot box."

Hariri won that election.
