From Fox News:
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — The party of slain former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto remained in the lead Monday and that of President Pervez Musharraf trailed behind in third place as vote-counting continued at the close of polls in Pakistan — a stunning development with major implications for the war on terror in the United States and abroad.
Early indications showed Bhutto’s Pakistan People’s Party in a strong first place in the parliamentary elections, followed by opposition Pakistan Muslim League-N of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.
The pro-Musharraf Pakistan Muslim League-Q was trailing in third.
Two opinion polls had predicted those results going into Monday’s elections. There were no official tallies when polls closed about 5 p.m. local time, but results were trickling in late in the day. Final returns weren’t expected before Wednesday.
