VOICED : La derecha se impone en las legislativas de El Salvador

In recent elections, the right-wing ARENA party emerged as the dominant parliamentary force in El Salvador, securing a significant number of votes compared to the leftist FMLN. ARENA also celebrated a municipal victory in the capital, with Ernesto Mason defeating the incumbent candidate. Analysts noted the elections were crucial for President Sánchez Serén's final year in office, affecting his governance. The current Congress sees ARENA with 35 seats, the officialism with 31, and minor parties with 18, necessitating negotiations. Despite over 5 million eligible voters, turnout was low.
