Correct. I remember reading an article on how "Milei-like" candidates were leading the polls in three South American countries. That was well over a year ago. Seema Shah was the author I beiieve.

Don’t discount paper ballot usage.

Costa Rica, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia are all paper ballots.

Venezuela and Brazil are electronic voting.

No, I don’t. Why don’t you care is a better question.


Because it doesn’t really matter. You’re just clutching pearls. Unless, of course, you can link a post of yours bitching when prices soared under Biden.

Damn, that's a hard pill to swallow. Our tax dollars were used against us.

Nicaragua has cancelled all elections to keep the right from taking over the government.

No, its the people of each country that voted along with their candidate. Elon exposing USAID destroyed the funding for the communists. I'm glad Trump is our president but he's not involved in other countries elections.
