When the law changed, I seem to remember some concerns that a malicious fringe candidate could stand in a large number of seats and then kill themselves, leading to countermandered polls across much of the country, causing chaos and delays to forming a government.

The joint assemblies (House, Senate, provincial delegates) made yesterday the PTI-candidate president.

I've decided to count Sheikh Rashid Ahmed (newly appointed Railways Minister) and his one-man band of a party as PTI.

She is to be banned from leaving the country as part of a deal the government has apparently struck with the opposition. Don't think there's much doubt about what happens if/when she is released.

Specifically an agreement with the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan, who are a new force in Islamist politics in Pakistan and are, to say the least, bad news.* The TLP's platform is pretty simple: kill all apostates and blasphemers. They aren't interested in much else. *Tautology, obviously.
