High voter turnout expected in Fallujah; Pajamas Media coverage of the election

Good news from Iraq shortly before the polls open.

From AP:

Buildings still lie in ruins, pulverized by one of the most intense urban battles of the Iraq war. The city is sealed off, with only residents allowed into or out of the tight security cordon.

But despite continuing violence and intimidation in Iraq's insurgent heartland, turnout for Thursday's election in Fallujah, once the effective headquarters of the insurgency, was expected to be high.

And as for a second reminder, Pajamas Media will be closing watching the Iraqi elections. Visit Pajamas' Iraq the Model for updates.
