BAGHDAD — Iraq’s electoral commission on Monday recommended a 45-day delay in parliamentary elections until Feb. 27, raising concerns that the postponed balloting could complicate the planned withdrawal of U.S. combat troops and bring a possible surge of violence.
The recommendation for Feb. 27 voting was sent to Iraq’s presidential council, which still must approve it, said Qassim al-Aboudi, a senior electoral commission official.
