Argentina's First Lady To Be President

[CHUQ]

Sound familiar?


First Lady Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner appeared to win a sweeping victory Sunday to become Argentina's first elected female president, according to exit polls and early official results.

Fernandez, 54, a longtime federal senator and wife of President Nestor Kirchner, was leading her closest rival, former congresswoman Elisa Carrio, by about 20 points, exit polls indicated.

That margin, if confirmed by final official results, would be sufficient to avoid a runoff election next month and allow the center-left Fernandez to take office Dec. 10 for a four-year term.

She has the support and if she attempts to become the next Eva Perone it might be just be what the country needs.

You be good--I was think of both that you mentioned. She is the second woman elected in latin America. It will interesting to see what her policies will be. She spent very little time campaigning, so I am not sure she has any stands other than those of her husband.
