TODAY'S DEMOCRACY NOW!:
* Guatemala's Indigenous Countryside Drives Election Victory Over
Atrocity-Linked General *
In an upset victory, Alvaro Colom, who ran on an anti-poverty platform, beat
the hard-line retired General Otto Perez Molina with close to 53 percent of
the vote. We get reaction from Guatemalan American writer Francisco Goldman.
His new book ³The Art of Political Murder: Who Killed the Bishop?²
implicates the defeated Perez Molina in the 1998 murder of beloved
Guatemalan human rights activist Bishop Juan Gerardi.
