In the largely Sunni neighborhood of Azamiyah in the capital's north, a car bomb struck near a military convoy, killing three people, including two soldiers, according to police.
Several would-be voters in Baghdad's mainly Sunni neighborhood of Azamiyah could not find their names on voting rolls at several polling centers, so they went home without casting ballots.
Marines went from the mosque to the Azamiyah Palace and then to the home of a Baath party leader in north-central Baghdad in pursuit of the Iraqi leaders, he said.
