Abdullah Abdullah should have promised Democrats 20% kick back on all US aid to Afghanistan and the Democrats would have trucked in Uzbekis, Tajiks, Baluchis, Pakistanis and Iranians to fill the polling places and stuff the ballot boxes.
The Democrats could have further promised that all absentee ballots from Afghan 'volunteers' in Syria and their relatives in Iran would fall his way/
That is after of course the funds are laundered through an d NGO and a Latvian, Estonia, or Byelorussian banks and deposited into loyal apparatchiks accounts in DC.
