Still Indian IT Speacialists can make the MAGIC VOTE Rigging for Mahinda.
What – election monitors from Asian Forum for Free and Fair Elections. Is this the lot who spouted extreme unsubstantiated rubbish after the last Presidential Election?
If so, who is going to monitor the activites of extremists dressed up as monitors? They could team up with JVP or whoever and rig the counting.
Observers from Afganistan, Myanmar? Jolly good! We miss Zimbabwe & Uganda.
Do you want the election monitors when Bush was elected first time?
I Hope MR& Clan wont bribe & win them over to their side.
