Realistically speaking, certain political stereotypes always work well in elections — more so in the context of G-B elections. In more than a decade since the new governance set-up was introduced in 2009, political stereotypes and traditions have managed to prevail. The political party at the helm of affairs in Islamabad has traditionally been successful in G-B elections — and that too with a clear majority. The 2015 elections in G-B were won by the PML(N) which was then holding the reins of power in Islamabad. Thus the G-B people electing the party in power at the Centre is a stereotype in vogue for long.
