PTI's Tareen trounces PML-N's Baloch in NA-154 Lodhran by-poll

Re: PTI’s Tareen trounces PML-N’s Baloch in NA-154 Lodhran by-poll

sarkar, sadiq baloch won in 2013 as an independent securing 82K votes
tareen came second with 72K votes
PMLN guy pir rafih uddin secured 45K votes

after winning, sadiq baloch joined PMLN, so in reality PMLN had 127K votes to begin with. how come it wasnt PMLN home? plus whole state machinery, huge local package and what not

so this time, tareen went from 70K to 140K and PMLN went from 127K to 100K…
