Any predictions on how many of the 14.2 million Iraqis registered to vote will turn out?

Any where between 800,000 and 1,200,000 no way is there more of a show out. I wouldn't be shocked if only 100,000 voted either. Anything over 2 million would shock me. [/b][/quote]
Looks like the Iraqi citizenship has embraced the opportunity to have a say in who decides their collective fate....for the first time in their lives.
With a turnout somewhere in the 70% area, (at least as reported thus far) its pretty clear now, that the people have spoken. They want democracy...period.
Good for them.
