Watch: Pakistan’s 2024 election voting slips include Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe’s names

Football has become a vital part of the modern world and football players are respected and appreciated in every country. In some countries, politicians or ministers do everything in their power to protect and preserve their football stars, like France’s President and Kylian Mbappe, Argentina’s ministers and Lionel Messi, and more.

Although it’s fine until this point, the craziness crosses the threshold when these stars start becoming a joke point for those countries’ elections and voting, as has seemingly been the case in Pakistan’s recent 2024 elections.

Watch: Pakistan’s 2024 election voting slips with soccer icons’ names

In the recent Pakistan’s 2024 elections held on February 8, 2024, all eyes were on Nawaz and his brother Shehbaz Sharif’s party, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), and Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), who have agreed to form a coalition government after not gaining a majority number of seats individually amidst escalating militant attacks.

Although the elections are allegedly being called rigged, an interesting video has gone viral on X in recent hours showing top football stars’ names on the voting slips. The video shows the names of Cristiano Ronaldo, who recently lost the Riyadh Cup final to rivals Al-Hilal, Neymar Jr., who is still recovering from his injury, 2022 World Cup winner Lionel Messi and France sensation Kylian Mbappe, who is reportedly on his way for a move to Real Madrid.

This viral video has engaged many fans all around the world and they have all started writing their views and opinions without any constraints on X.

Soccer fans react to hilarious Pakistan’s 2024 election incident

In response to the viral video of stars’ names on the voting list, many fans around the world have tweeted hilarious views and opinions. Pakistan’s 2024 election has become a joke in recent hours, with no one focusing on the newly formed coalition government. Every fan around the world is intrigued by the viral video.

One of them sarcastically asked for the voting slips of famous wrestling stars like Undertaker, who made a surprise entrance in the recent Riyadh Cup final in Saudi Arabia, and commented whether they don’t have the right to vote or are just unaware of the ongoing scenario.

“Where’s The Rock, John Cena, Triple H, and Undertaker? Aren’t using their right to vote or unaware!!!”

Another one expressed his opinion about the possibility of this happening only in Pakistan and in no other country, while one more fan declared it a global-level election.

“This can only happen in Pakistan.”

“Uff a global election.”

This recent controversy has spread a blanket over the ongoing scenario of accused-biased elections in Pakistan. Whether the elections are rigged or not, it is hard to tell, but if these types of scenarios are happening in a country’s election, it just shows that something has to change in that country’s administration body.

It’s wrong to misuse the star’s name like this in a country’s election. Do you think the fault lies with the Pakistani government or is it just the fans spreading nonsense over the internet? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
