See, democracy is fine and the problem is just with every single implementation of it.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Pakistan was thrown into a state of crisis on Friday with its election results still undeclared more than 24 hours after polling closed and the vote marred by widespread allegations of rigging.

Analysts and candidates widely questioned the integrity of the polls that took place on Thursday, raising concerns that there was an attempt to rig the vote to bring back the three-time former prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, and his Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) to power.

As the day went on, both PML-N and PTI declared victory and there was a growing sense of frustration at the lack of clear results across the country, which is in the throes of the worst economic crisis in its history.

At his party headquarters in Lahore, Sharif – who a few hours earlier had given a confident assurance of a simple majority for the PML-N – was forced to cancel plans to give his victory speech, which had been pre-written.

From first-time voters to elderly women born before Pakistan was established, and from labourers to tech workers and lawyers, the overwhelming majority said they were voting for PTI, or as many put it, giving their full backing to Khan.

In NA-47, the central Islamabad constituency visited by the Guardian on polling day, the PTI candidate Shoaib Shaheen said officials had declared him a clear winner on Thursday night with a majority of more than 50,000 votes.

The original article contains 1,120 words, the summary contains 233 words. Saved 79%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Wish the autotldr mentioned that PTI "lost" about 50-60 seats because of very blatant rigging or rather just lying about voter results.

They were prevented from having a simple majority, which is exactly what the army wants so they can keep every party weak and reliant on them to function, and also keep Imran Khan in jail.

PMLN's 4 major party leaders were all losing in their respective districts until they magically gained upwards of 100k votes overnight, long after polls closed.

The form 45 results being published don't match the form 47 final summary being published to the ECP. They straight up lied about the total votes and will probably coerce the judiciary to ignore and delay the slew of fraud cases that are about to be filed.

Still, imagine losing to a guy in jail who has been communicating using an AI version of himself, and isn't even allowed to run for PM for at least a decade. Voting really does matter even in the face of fraud and a drunk dictator army chief.
