"We made a big mistake when we didn't vote," said Sheik Hathal Younis Yahiya, 49, a representative from northern Nineveh. "Our votes were very important."

Oh and then:

And the excuse:

He said threats from insurgents — not sectarian differences — kept most Sunnis from voting.

Ok, I buy that for some sunnis, but let me refresh this guys memory, "All Sunnies Should Boycott the Elections"
