Voting Today

Kurdish elections today.

Here's the BBC's take.
Voting is under way for a new president and parliament in the autonomous
Iraqi region of Kurdistan, with the governing coalition facing a vigorous
challenge.

A BBC correspondent says turnout is expected to be high, with queues of
people outside polling stations before they had opened.

Incumbent President Masood Barzani and the ruling parliamentary coalition
are both expected to win re-election.
