The first round of El Salvador's presidential elections, which took place last month, resulted in a strong showing by left-wing former member of the rebel army Salvador Sanchez Ceren--but not strong enough to avoid runoffs scheduled for March 9. Join us as Douglas Farah shares his thoughts on the outcome of the runoffs, providing insight into what they might mean for El Salvador, Central America, and the Western Hemisphere.
