My favorite moment of the day: the 70 year old mother in a wheelchair celebrating her vote for Fatah and her son accompanying her who voted for a secular ticket. They both smiled lovingly at each other as each explained their vote to me.

IHEC says that it will be faster and easier to count ballots. Picture shows various ways results are being transmitted straight from Sulaymaniyah to Baghdad, including via satellite apparently. pic.twitter.com/0OGfeoYfMQ

That's the Internet speed Iraqi reporters have been dealing with all day in Baghdad. That's dial-up modem speed. Your average household Internet goes at least 500 times faster. #الانتخابات_العراقيه_2018, #IraqElections2018 pic.twitter.com/YQydSmddJb

Somewhat hilariously IHEC spokesperson couldn't send the document with the turnout numbers on it via email because he didn't have any Internet. @NazliTarzi has it on her timeline though.
