Peru's Presidential Runoff Election

In Peru there was a runoff election for president between Allan Garcia and Ollanta Humala. Garcia was in office in the 1980's and was responsible for weakening Peru's economy. Humala is a nationalist and wants to redistribute the country's power and wealth to the poor whose needs have been neglected. The polls show that the election is very close and a clear winner hasn't been determined yet. See the story here.
