Reportback on El Salvador's Legislative & Local ElectionsJanuary 30th 6:00 PMEncuentro 5, 33 Harrison Ave, 5th FloorBoston, MA (near Chinatown or Boylston St. T)Everyone, even the Right, are predicting the left FMLN party is on track to capture El Salvador's presidency in March 2009.  The rightwing ARENA party is poised to lose their stranglehold on power and they're desperate and using violence and fraud to sway the elections.   Just returned from the excitement of El Salvador's January 18th legislative and local elections, CISPES representative Lisa Fuller will report on the election results, the grassroots social struggle and the prospects for the FMLN to win the Presidential elections in March.There will be refreshments and a discussion of the questions:How will the Salvadoran rightwing respond to an FMLN victory?  What will be the Obama Administration's stance toward an FMLN government?  What does an FMLN presidency mean for Free Trade and CAFTA in El Salvador?  How can we in North America support free & fair elections in El Salvador, including observing the March elections in El Salvador!
