Bilawal Bhutto / PPP

This article incorrectly states that the PPP is participating in the election and that Bilawal Bhutto is it's leader. The party that is registered with the Election Commission of Pakistan is the PPPP, and under Pakistani law, no person who is not eligible for election to the National Assembly can have a leadership role. Therefore, neither Bilawal Bhutto (due to his age), nor Asif Zardari (due to his position as President) can legally have a leadership position in the PPPP. I believe the President of the PPPP is once again, Amin Fahim. Plus the PPP have confirmed that Bilawal Bhutto will not have any campaigning role. http://dawn.com/2013/03/26/bilawal-leaves-pakistan-not-to-lead-ppp-election-campaign/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.182.75.114 (talk) 00:47, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Re-drafting

Following the final results, this page requires heavy editing to make the information more effective and to the point, while removing the tinges of partisan tilting in some pieces in the writing. It is absolutely essential to scan this page and fix the grammar and other mistakes.Un.autre.monde (talk) 14:24, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Karachi's irregularities definitely need to be covered, there is plenty of news on it. If I get some time later I may make an effort at it. Jztinfinity (talk) 05:03, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
