That is all I read in your post, and that is what I said previously. This is why PTI has no chance of winning in Lahore. Let me go back a few years and give you a classic example yet again. In the Pindi by election, Imran chose a land mafia badmash Jaazi (and since Imran is very fond of making predictions, predicted a win for his candidate . PMLN whose previous winning MNA was dismissed because of some scandal posted a unknown middle classed dude who no one knew). The real battle was b/w Shiekh Rasheed and Shakeel Awan.
In the end, Imran’s Jaazi did not even muster 3000 votes in a massive city like Rawalpindi and got 4th position, even some independent candidate got more than double the votes than Jaazi. The funniest thing was, Jaazi as an independent candidate secured 8000 votes in the 2008 elections LOL!
People such as myself, even if we support Imran will not vote for his candidate if they happen to be our neighborhood’s Qabza Group murderers. Also, I dont buy Imran’s statements about admitting to rigging and problems in the intra party elections because he was supporting Aleem all along because he could pump it (Aleem’s black money) into party funds.
