My thoughts:
-Statements of the foreign observers need to be taken with a grain of salt. These people have a limited understanding of Somali society and are
prone to manipulation by their handlers. In Kenya, the foreign observers at first claimed Uhuru won in an election free of significant irregularities and only reversed course after the supreme court there ordered a re-vote. This shows how these people are naive and fickle.
-Many factors point to widespread election manipulation by Kulmiye: their insistence on certain ballots from the UAE; photos showing hordes of children and Oromo-looking people voting in their areas; the harassment and physical assault against Wadani observers in multiple locations; the massively inflated votes coming in from SM areas, etc etc.
Folks this election was RIGGED.
