The elections are being held in very difficult circumstances following the tense relationship with the leader of the Insaf Party, Imran Khan, who was dismissed from power. Depriving Imran Khan from political work, and imprisoning him for ten years, may push many Pakistani voters to vote for him, especially among the youth segment.

The electoral battle, it seems, will be between the "Pakistani People's Party" led by Bilawal Bhutto, former Foreign Minister of Pakistan, and the "Muslim League" party led by Nawaz Sharif.
