“Paraguay Elections 2018: Almost Five Million Paraguayans Vote for Future President Using Electronic System”

Paraguay. Almost five million Paraguayans are enabled to vote this Sunday for the first time with an electronic system for the future presidentin elections that will define whether they maintain the status quo of the historic Colorado Party – which governed 65 of the last 69 years – or seek to bring about a change by giving the opportunity to an opposition alliance that brings together parties from the left, center and right.

The answer will be known this Sunday from 4:30 p.m. (5:30 p.m. in Argentina) when the elections close after nine and a half hours, since there is no second round and the polls offered a mixed picture, which goes from awarding a certain victory of the official candidate, Santiago Peña, a tie between him and the main opponent, Efraín Alegre, and even the unexpected appearance of the Paraguayan outsider “Payo” Cubas.
