Mr.Lu where are you?

Im just watching the news trying to get you guys some updates. The PRD is at the JCE causing ruckus. It looks like they are trying set the platform for future arguments against the results. They are arguing that they want some TV's turned off. But the TVs are only showing some actas, which are public info and have nothing to do with the results. It was a 20 minute rant on channel 16. This is insane. Absolutely insane.

The PLD currently has 53% of the votes. If this holds Leonel wins with no runoff.

Come on! no one party rule is good, democracy is based in diversification they are plenty of parties the PRD can disappear.....................

LF is very popular and brings in people from other parties and organizations as well as a wide swath of women and youth voters (by far the most important demographic groups in the country), but the PLD militancy itself is minute compared to the PRD. Any time LF isn't the PLD candidate, they'll lose to the PRD. PRD simply shot themselves in the foot by reinstating re-election in their avarice.

They purchased a lot of votes. He's not popular, he is just a clientelismo monger...he rules the concept of clientelismo. They bought votes with jobs and promises of jobs. As for the size of the militancy, yes the PLD might be "minute" but reflects the fact that they bought a lot of these votes.
