premise: The United Iraqi Alliance, endorsed by Iraq's top Shiite clerics, captured more than two-thirds of the 3.3 million votes counted so far, the election commission said.
hypothesis: The United Iraqi Alliance were winning the election at the time of the report
reason: The United Iraqi Alliance had a majority of the votes at the time of the report, so they must have been winning the election at that point. The system could likely not compute that having a majority of the votes meant winning.
