Argentina Gears Up for Elections with Scioli in the Lead

2015-10-21 7

Daniel Scioli of the ruling Front for Victory party continues to be the front runner in this Sunday’s elections, but it is less certain that he will win the presidency without a runoff. To best the conservative opposition candidate Mauricio Macri on the first round, he must either get 45% of the vote or take 40% with a ten point margin. As factors favoring a win by Scioli, observers site the positive perception of the economy that many people have and an optimism that the situation will continue to get better under the ruling party. teleSUR
