There is speculation that President General Pervez Musharraf might share power with Benazir Bhutto after the elections. But there is opposition to any partnership from within the ruling Pakistan Muslim League, a collection of politicians who Musharraf pulled under his banner.
Meanwhile, Musharraf is struggling to keep Nawaz Sharif, the prime minister he ousted and exiled, out of the country. Sharif was deported to Saudi Arabia in September when he tried to end his exile. Saudi Arabia is putting pressure on Musharraf to let Sharif return, but Musharraf fears PML members will defect if their old leader is allowed back, according to diplomats.
The court, regarded as hostile since Musharraf tried to sack its top judge in March, is hearing a number of cases against the government, including challenges to Musharraf's eligibility to have stood for re-election while army chief.
