Colombia to hold presidential runoff: De la Espriella vs. Cepeda
Colombians voted Sunday in the first round of presidential elections, choosing between a reformist left seeking to retain power following a historic victory four years ago and a hard-line right promising greater security amid escalating violence by armed groups. With 99% of votes counted, far-right outsider Abelardo de la Espriella leads with more than 10 million votes, followed by leftist Iván Cepeda. The two will face off in a runoff on June 21.
