Musharraf partnered with formerly exiled political figure Benazir Bhutto, promised to step down as head of the armed services, engineered an exception enabling him to run for another term and weathered an election day challenge to that exception.
ISLAMABAD: According to unofficial results President Pervez Musharraf has won presidential election with heavy majority.Amazing how an unpopular president can win such a sweeping victory. In spite of my belief that Musharraf is best for Pakistan right now (compared to any likely alternative), I'll be interested to see what election monitors have to say about this election in retrospect.
President Musharraf has won presidential polls with clean sweep, state television reported on Saturday.
