Election day in Panama

Today ends one of the most boring campaigns in Panama's history, where the most striking was to prevent Ricardo Martinelli's participation as the favorite candidate of the mayor of Panama a few days before the elections. .

There are seven candidates: Marco Ameglio, Saul Méndez, Romulo Roux, José Blandón, Laurentino Cortizo, Ricardo Lombana and Ana Matilde Gómez, who seek the majority of the votes of 2,757,823 citizens in an election that estimates an abstention of 20 to 23%.
A tight vote is expected between Cortizo and Roux. Laurentino is waiting for the return of the PRD after 10 years of presence at the lama. while Romulo relies on the wish of the nobility of the Martinelli government and on the useful vote of the people who reject the PRD.
