More than 30 people have been killed in a bomb attack in the city of Quetta as votes are counted in Pakistan's election. Elsewhere, minor blasts and clashes between party workers left several injured and two dead. Opinion polls suggest the election battle will be between the parties of ex-cricket star Imran Khan and the disgraced former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
