Now that the Election Board has spoken out loud and the results will be official by June 21st should MEDREK and AEUP cut their loss and accept the people’s verdict and move on or try the last resort going to the courts to demand for re-election? 
By all account even if there were irregularitiesĀ here and there EPRDF has won big! We have not heard any evidence that could change the lopsided victory of the EPRDF.The difference of votes between EPRDF and the next best MEDREK is too huge. Such difference can not be simply explained by irregularities!
Five years is not that long and opposition parties should look inward and figure out what went wrong and start the preparation for the next election. Some of their leaders are already throwing the towel with out a transition plan. That is so sad and not good for democracy but that is our view what about yours? Should MEDREK and AEUP accept the election result and move on or continue the legal process? Have Your Say!
