...taken government pollsters longer than expected to count votes because the turnout was so high, but the tallies Monday had the ruling party candidate, Guatemala City mayor Oscar Berger, with a 1 percentage point lead over newcomer Alfonso Portillo, of the opposition Guatemalan Republican Front. Portillo, however, has an excellent shot at taking the December 26 election, because he's likely to absorb the 7 percent of voters who favored the candidate of a Marxist party fielded by ex-guerrillas. While Portillo's party, like the ruling party, is considered right-wing and is run by a former military dictator...
