Ortega Leads Presidential Race in Nicaragua

Will he also make Bush see red?

Retro-Marxist-leader Daniel Ortega is leading the polls in the Nicaraguan presidential race. Here go the numbers produced by Gallup for La Prensa newspaper:

Daniel Ortega (FSLN): 23%
Eduardo Montealegre (NLA): 17%
Herty Lewites (MRS): 15%
Others: 13%
Undecided: 32%

Ortega could avoid a run-off if he gets 35% of the vote or a five point lead and at least 30% of the votes.

The high number of undecided voters (32%) will obviously define the outcome. Expect fierce campaigning. Election day is 5 November 2006.

    Today's Ortega is more experienced than Reagan's. Chavez is investing millions in his campaign. Castro provides consultancy services. Evo completes the team.

    GOD SAVE US
