The poll could spell trouble for President Pervez Musharraf, a key US ally, if voters elect a Parliament hostile to him.

A bomb attack outside a Pakistani election candidate's office killed at least 48 people on Saturday, the last day of campaigning for a general election meant to complete a transition to civilian rule.

"It's a very bad situation. Bodies are lying everywhere but we have not yet counted them," Muneer Hussain Bangash, a doctor in the main government hospital in the northwestern town of Parachinar, said.
