Leftist On Track For Historic Triumph In El Salvador : NPR

All Things Considered, February 23, 2009 ·

Former leftist rebels in El Salvador appear poised to accomplish at the ballot box what they were unable to accomplish on the battlefield: win power.

In the 1980s, the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front drew the U.S. into a bloody Cold War conflict in Central America.

Now, as a political party known by its acronym FMLN, it has been leading in public opinion polls for presidential elections slated for March.

If the party’s candidate wins, he would be the first leftist president in El Salvador’s history.
