Remember Hamid Karzi? Yeah...

This guy was supposed to be the "savior" of Afghanistan. Frankly I'm amazed he's still alive because of all the assassination attempts there have already been on his life it also turns out he's a corrupt little bastard too. Seems that he has learned the Chicago style of voting, stealing votes. According to the UN (yeah they did something useful, I'm stunned too)

A UN-backed election watchdog has declared invalid hundreds of thousands of votes for Afghanistan's president in the disputed August election, apparently stripping Hamid Karzai of outright victory and setting the stage for a second round.

After nearly two months of investigations, the Electoral Complaints Commission (ECC) – controlled by a majority of non-Afghans – found Karzai's total had fallen to 48.3%, according to an independent analysis. He needed 50% to clinch another term in office.

A separate election commission that backs the president will have to endorse the findings and call for a second-round vote to be held in the next few weeks.

I wonder if the UN monitored our election how many votes would have found out to be stolen by either side. Just food for thought. Just what we need now...
