(np) Common Sense imho

[Mark Kohut]

The exit polls were 2 to 1 for the challenger. Madura's pal on
the Left', the Pres of Columbia told Madura to
show him the audited vote counts which was his nice way of saying
Get Out, which is what Melii of Argentina told him straight....

As leading Generals spoke and sent a letter to the troops---Madura's
military--that we seem to have a new President Elect and we must
recognize this historical moment
as the National Guard refused to turn on the people as did the police.....
Madura has some special motorcycle-riding thugs who are attacking hundreds
of thousands
of citizens peacefully protesting his autocratic rule and his lies and
refusal to peacefully turn over
power. .
