Afghan presidential candidate Abdullah Abdullah speaks during a press conference at his residence in Kabul, Afghanistan, Sunday, July 6, 2014. The country's election crisis deepened Sunday as the two presidential candidates, Abdullah and Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai, sparred over the release of preliminary results and calls mounted for a broader investigation of suspect ballots amid allegations of massive fraud. Abdullah, who garnered the most votes in the first round of voting on April 5 but failed to get the majority needed to win outright, has boycotted the electoral institutions after alleging widespread ballot box stuffing and other efforts to rig the June 14 runoff vote against him.
