Afghanistan held elections again for the first time in eight years on October 20th. There were threats and violence by the Taliban. The Afghan government has tried to make agreements with the Taliban but have been refused. Voters braved the threats to wait in lines to vote. There was much violence, however, and fifty-six people died. A total of 379 people were hurt, 339 of those being on the election day. Several places had voting prolonged and the forty additional wounded were during that time.
