Ssshhh ... Don't Mention Those Iraqi Election Complaints

NPR, this morning, did a story noting there have been over 700 complaints about theconduct of the Iraqi elections. They also reported that the Iraqi Islamic Party - the Sunni party hailed by the Bush administration for pushing a "yes" vote on the Constitution - has claimed fraud regarding the vote in Baghdad.

This raises a huge concern because how is the election going to be seen as credible amongst Sunnis if even the IIP is claiming it was fraudulent.

Most of the U.S. media is ignoring the story - just as they ignored the strange goings-on in Ninevah and Diyala during the Constitutional referendum.

UPDATE: It appears the AP has now picked up the IIP story here and are reporting more than 1,000 complaints.
