Uruguay: Conservative Left vs. Innovative Right?
Uruguay’s left-wing ruling Frente Amplio coalition looked as if it was coasting home to an easy return in this year’s presidential and congressional elections (due on 26 October, with a possible second round on 30 November). But in the last few months, support has been building for the traditional centre-right Partido Nacional (PN, Blancos). While the Frente is still ahead, it has become a much more open race. And in a reversal of the traditional roles, the Left has found itself defending the economic status quo, while it is the PN that is promising to shake things up a little.
