Elections! Here comes the Parade!

This Sunday is Election Day in Peru. The past couple of weeks I haven't heard about many debates, but I have seen parade after parade. The tactic that many politicans take here in Peru is to put on a good show, have a catchy tune and hope that the clown will convince you to vote for his candidate. Local races this year. There must be nearly a dozen candidates for Mayor. Which means a lot of parades. I am not sure if I will go out and witness voting on Election Day, as I hear it can get intense with joy and disappointment, but there are still a couple of more days left of the parade.
