[mahoka]

The day started with voters getting text messages telling them of their local poll station and to not forget bringing their voter ID cards



Huge lines formed around 6, an hour before polls opened throughout the nation...




Large turnout of women voters, people are seeing women’s voter lines are longer than the men’s

It only takes 16 years to hold elections in SL, which is a big achievement.

What about 3 presidential one man one vote elecions since 2003. In 18 years 3 presidents one man. One vote. Where as your country Somalia can't hold one man one vote elecions.

Somalis including Isaaq do not have the western understanding and mature mentality, this is a sham election to cheat the West and bring Somaliland in a good positive frame

Every man and woman in that line will vote for their tribal candidate they do not understand political idology and the canditates them self are not even running on their political princillpes there is no socialism Islamic ideas free market values this is a thierd world shit hole with imported liberal democracy that was created for the sofistacted white Europeans who had elections since 1850 and with their understanding of a national state with loyalty towards it not something primitive called qabil

There's asterisk on the 3 presidential ones, 'cause it happened with expired parliament, plus observers have noted it wasn't clean/transparent. In the last one, the leader of one of the parties stated the election was stolen from his party. The truth is SL's system isn't democracy. For instance, it's illegal to form a 4th political party, making it a two-party duopoly, with the third acting as a kickback for one of the others. A delay of 16 years only happened in SL, nonetheless, it's never too late.

Congratulations to SL and their election system. It ain’t perfect and has a lot issues but it’s better than nothing and it’s an achievement all Somalis should be proud of.

Isn’t that what happens in your so called “enlightened democracies”

Conservatives vote republican and liberals vote democrat. That gays vote liberal and ethnic minorities. The bible bashers vote republican.

Or have you swallowed the cool aid that somehow we Africans are tribal but the white mans tribal is something else.

This nigga is a skunk. All ever does is stink up any positive Somaliland thread with his negative lies. What really takes the piss is this guy is from a minority endangered southern group. Instead of fighting for his, Somaliland is his high to escape his sad reality.

Perperino, let it all out my nigga. Let Somaliland be your therapy. We help everyone even a downtrodden soul like you. Even talking shit about Somaliland helps you in any way. Please keep going. It certainly takes nothing away from us. We just read your comment laugh and keep it moving.
