Pakistan's election outcome was a significant victory for Nawaz Sharif and his Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) or PML-N. Voters appear to have demanded change, but rather than turn to the untested Imran Khan and the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) they have reverted to Nawaz Sharif, who like Benazir Bhutto was twice elected to power in the 1990s.
