ECP annuls Daska by-election, orders re-polling on March 18 Citing reports of polling-day violence and massive rigging in the NA-75, Daska, by-election, the Election Commission of Pakistan has ordered re-polling in the constituency. By-elections for three National Assembly and four Provincial Assembly seats were held in the country on February19. The elections and their results highlight the reality that local politics have overwhelmed the narratives supported by the government and opposition parties. The by-elections have sprung two upsets. The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Fazl (JUIF) both lost seats, in Nowshera and Kurram, respectively, that they had won in 2018.
