Colombian congressional elections of March 1914 are now one of the most important of recent years. There is so much expectation, and fear. Expectation that this is the opportunity to change the "worst Congress Colombia's history." A Congress rife with corruption scandals and "para-politics." Even the most apathetic Colombian knows the importance of these elections. Also expected the new parties like the Green Party, formed by the last three ex-mayors of Bogotá.
But on the other hand, there is fear. Fear for the continuity and consolidation of parties cooked from Picota prison.
striking is the information of the first newsletters:
1. In the Plaza de Bolivar in Bogota, the abstention rate exceeded 50%. Moreover, it beats the record turnout in Colombia. To this we must add the invalid votes. Many people complained that the ballot was confusing.
2. Vote buying, especially in the Atlantic Coast.
3. A SNAIL reporter asked why people go to vote later. The answer he found was surprising: for some people the vote is worth more as is near the time of closing. (Interesting)
4. The men vote more than women.
5. For the first time in electoral history borders were closed.
6. Antanas growing up in consultation Verde.
7. Noemi Sanin is winning the conservative consultation.
8. MIRA is winning the party on the tables at the consulates abroad.
9. Fugure of showbiz and the first ex-hostages burned.
