Kuwaitis elected 4 women to the 50 seat Parliament yesterday! Women only received the right to vote in that country in 2006. Interestingly enough, all were educated in the US. All winner ran as independents.
Islamic parties dropped from 21 to 11 seats.
Marc Lynch has great analysis of the Kuwaiti elections.
