VOICED : Comicios en Costa Rica y El Salvador

Costa Rica and El Salvador are holding elections amid strong political polarization. Both countries face potential shifts towards left-wing governance, with Costa Rica's Frente Amplio and El Salvador's FMLN as key players. In El Salvador, poverty and gang violence dominate the campaign, with FMLN's Salvador Sánchez Serén promising social programs, while rival Norman Quijano focuses on tough anti-gang measures. Costa Rica's election sees the left-wing José María Villalta challenging the ruling right-wing party. The outcomes could influence the political landscape in Central America, where right-wing governments currently dominate.
