00:0050% of the electorate almost in 2008 voted for the Iwami League.
00:04So we can still assume that despite everything that's happened, you know, in 2024, the violence against protesters, the deadly crackdowns, that the Iwami League still has, you know, yeah, as you said, potentially tens of millions of supporters.
00:19And they are, you know, to some extent disenfranchised.
00:23The party of their choice, you know, is not allowed to participate in the election.
00:30And it's this is one of the unpredictable elements of this election.
00:35I mean, if we if we're looking at it from the question of who's going to win, it is hard to predict because we have this big block of voters.
00:43You know, it could be, say, 20 or 30 million out of, you know, up to 130 million whose party is not in the race.
00:54What are they going to do? Are they going to vote at all?
00:57Because it's not compulsory voting. They could choose to stay away.
01:00Are they going to vote for maybe the BNP block or are they going to vote for the Jamaat block or they could deface their ballots?
01:06I mean, there are many different options. Right.
01:09And so that makes it very difficult to to predict the outcome of this election.
