National Election Results

Well the Kuwait National Assembly elections are over, women in Kuwait voted for the first time ever in a national election.  However not a single woman that ran for office won.  But this is progress for democracy in the region and progress for Kuwaiti women.  Big winners were Shiite, Conservative, Independents and Islamist, with a few liberals added to the mix.  All in all no big change for Kuwaiti politics, but some progress and forward movement.
