An Indonesian re-run


Counting in the Indonesian parliamentary elections seems to confirm that the forthcoming presidential contest will be between the same two candidates as last time - the incumbent President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and former President Megawati Soekarnoputri. Yudhoyono's Democratic Party did best in the parliamentary vote just concluded and he will likely be supported for president by the Golkar Party which came in third in the parliamentary poll.
