It appears, if RW is to win, it will be on a 2nd round preference count.
If RW steps down, RP or AKD will gain > 50 % in the 1st vote.
However, if RP or AKD assume leadership, we will have a Bangladeshi model uprising within a year. RP will flee to preserve his life and his wealth, while AKD will unleash his cadres to spray bullets on the protestors.
We are in a tough time. A few years ago, we gave 69% of our vote to a coward who fled the mob on a boat.
I believe RW should step down; unfortunately, he loves our country and our people too much.
