KipWellsFan Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 http://www.cbc.ca/story/world/national/200...quez050301.html Tabare Vasquez and his Broad Front coalition, which includes former Communist guerrillas, beat out Uruguay's established, more conservative parties to win the Oct. 31 election. With roughly 3.5 million people, Uruguay is the sixth South American country with a government that identifies itself as socialist. Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela and Ecuador have all elected leftist governments within the past few years. I wonder why it took so long to announce this if the election happened on Halloween?

Often times these elections are corrupt and recounts are neccesary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapkomet Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Holy crap, if the conservatives here had control of the country for 170 years, we'd all be atomic dust by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
