Iraqis cast vote in Kurdish elections

ARBIL, Iraq, July 25 (Xinhua) -- Iraqis went to polls on Saturday in the country's Kurdish regional parliamentary and presidential elections that will determine the leadership of the region.

Voting started at 8:00 a.m. local time (0500 GMT) and will end at 6:00 p.m. (1500 GMT).

About 2.5 million eligible voters in the three northern provinces -- Arbil, Sulaimaniyah and Duhuk -- and some other Kurds outside the region will elect their 111-seat parliament and next president.
