Delayed Results

A spokeswoman for the Pakistan People's Party had this to say about the results from yesterday's elections which are still not fully tallied:

We're not getting the results.  They have been delayed, which in Pakistan means they will be changed.

That's often the sense I have here too - whether it be New Mexico in 2000 or 2004, Florida in 2000, or any other of the key races where there is a significant delay between voting and reporting.
