NICARAGUA: Montealegre emerges as man to beat
Eduardo Montealegre is shaping up as the man most likely to succeed
President Enrique Bolaños after November's elections. Montealegre, a dissident
from the Partido Liberal Constitucionalista (PLC), edged ahead of Herty Lewites,
a dissident from the Frente Sandinista de Liberación Nacional (FSLN), in the
polls. He is also playing up his role in breaking the deadlock in the national
assembly, over appointing a new leadership committee, by withdrawing his party's
candidate.
