2010 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS
Presidential
Candidates Debate On Live Television Tonight
Costa Ricans will be able to see in action,
on live television tonight the three top
presidential candidates, in a debate that is
sure to spark controversy and increase
tensions.
Front runner Laura Chinchilla of the PLN
party, trailing Otto Guevara of the ML party
and third place Ottón Solís of the PAC
party, will square off in a debate sponsored
by channel 7's Teletica.
The debate is set for 9pm.
The moderator will allow the candidates to
aks each other questions and will control
the air time spent by each candidate for an
even distribution.
The Solís campaign has focused on portraying
Chinchilla as a puppet of president Arias
and Costa Rican powers behind the scenes and
attacking Guevara's source of campaign
financing."
Guevara has attacked personally Chinchilla,
calling her a liar about her personal
finances. Chinchilla has responded by taking
legal action against Guevara.
Strangly enough, neither of the top two
candidates have focused on attacking Solís
as he trails in third place with 13.7% of
the vote, in contrast to Guevara's 30.4% and
Chinchilla's 40.9%, according to the latest
poll released by Angus Reid Global Monitor.
It is not sure the political strategy that
will be used tonight by the candidates. But,
rest assured that all three candidates have
employed the best minds to bring forth the
best political strategy with only two weeks
before Costa Ricans go to the polls.
