Women along Pakistan's Western Border Disenfranchised by Fundamentalist Tribal Leaders

In Pakistan, about 45 percent of the country's 160 million people went to the polls for parliamentary elections earlier this month.  A portion of the population boycotted the elections to send a message to the ruling powers.  But others were not permitted to vote. Hardliner Pakistani tribal men prevented thousands of women from casting their ballots in the tribal areas near the Afghan border. They hung posters in cities warning political candidates not to bring their female supporters to the polls. Zack Baddorf has the story from Pakistan.
