Voting Fraud in Afghanistan Election

   On april 5th in Afghanistan were the elections for president. Unfortunately Afghanistan has established a very low bar with electoral fraud. Election officials refuse to say how many votes are really at risk; however, 80,000 votes have been taken to review for fraud, just for one candidate. They commissions only have until May 14 to release official results, even though the voters and candidates are both complaining stating that there is no way to know that any of the votes are clean. The success in this Western-funded election is very important to countries supporting to continue to donate and support the Afghan government.
