Iraq’s Interior Minister Falah al Naqib said that voting in the “Sunni triangle” was light in the morning. However, “Praise be to God, things have changed at noon and people headed for the polling centers, especially in Ninawa, Salah al-Din, Diyala, and Al-Anbar.” He adds that the turnout is good in Ninawa, Mogul, and Salah al-Din Governorate. He then says: “The most important thing is that the turnout is good in the city of Al-Fallujah.” I heard another report in which people were in line at the polls saying. “No fear, no fear.”
