Just like in Syrian elections

So, as expected, the Bangladeshi junta got about 90 % of the vote in the just concluded ‘parliamentary’ elections which its security chiefs claimed were the ‘most free’ in history. That is usually the percentage that dictators often get in their ‘elections’…the other 10 % of the vote a reflection of possibly a few very brave souls or clerical error on part of tabulating machines or the last glimmer of conscience in cowed election officials.
