Fears of Iraq poll boycott after Sunni party pulls out, Guardian (2010)

Saleh al-Mutlaq, a leader of the National Dialogue Front (one of the main Sunni parties) calls for a Sunni boycott of the upcoming Iraqi elections. Al-Mutlaq was one of the individuals listed in the banned electoral list because of his alleged Baathist ties. Although there was no immediate response to his call by the other Sunni parties, there are fears that this move might lead to a "dangerous political vacuum after the elections."
