"Gul Agha Sherzai, from Kandahar, won less than two percent of the vote in the April 5 election, but is seen as able to deliver some support from Pashtuns, Afghanistan's largest ethnic group.

Abdullah, whose support is strongest in Tajik ethnic areas, came first by a large margin in the election, though he fell short of the 50 percent threshold needed for outright victory, according to preliminary results."
