Myanmar's Election Ends with Military-Backed Party Dominating

Myanmar's Election Ends with Military-Backed Party Dominating

Myanmar just finished its election in three parts.

The military's party, USDP, is expected to win most seats.

The election is not fair because the military is in charge, and many people are scared to vote.

Some areas are too dangerous to vote because of fighting.

The military says it will give power to a new government, but many people don't believe it.

The last time they had an election, the military took over and put the leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, in jail.

Now, she can't run, and her party is gone.

Some countries say the election is not fair, but others are watching.

The military says it will keep protecting the country.
