Anticlimactic Election Results


Well the votes have been counted and…(drumroll)…Daniel Ortega won by a landslide!  I know you’re all shocked so here are the details.  Last time I checked, Danny won about 62% votes with the next closest, Fabio, coming in with 30%.  Of course there are always going to be controversies but life should be returning to normal soon.

There were some rioting but it remained pretty isolated.  Around 10:30pm election day, there was some massive cheering and firework in my town.  I not sure how they knew the results so early but that was the extent of the “bedlam”.  I was almost disappointed.

A couple more weeks of school and then Thanksgiving with Foreign Service Officers!  I’ll let you know the details soon!
