🇵🇪It’s likely the diaspora vote will be decisive, for the 1st time in LatAm history. It’s assumed that voting abroad has been a democratic advance. But citizens living abroad won’t be bound by the policies of those elected. It is, in effect, “representation without taxation.”

Peru votes today.

Sure to be a close one.

It will not be a simple story of "Peru turns right," even if Keiko Fujimori wins, & here's why.

Peru turned right in 2023 after Castillo's impeachment, when the leaders of the biggest groups in congress...

The Trump administration is controlling billions of dollars of Venezuelan oil revenue with almost no transparency or oversight, argues expert Roxanna Vigil.

"The United States has a narrow window to translate its influence in Venezuela into meaningful democratic progress," she writes. In the absence of a clear plan, "the United States risks propping up the same authoritarian regime responsible for the worst peacetime migration and humanitarian crisis in the Western Hemisphere in recent history."

El ataque contra Venezuela también es un ataque contra la propia institucionalidad de EEUU y sobre todo su Congreso; pero también contra la justicia estadounidense. ¿Cómo legitima Trump un juicio por narco contra Maduro en la misma corte donde se enjuició a JOH, el mismo que él indultó? Interesante post de Nancy Pelosi 👇🏽

[Benjamin Gedan @benjamingedan]

Restoring Venezuela’s democracy and ending its crimes against humanity would be a remarkable foreign policy feat. But having abandoned those principles, the U.S. justifies its intervention by exaggerating Venezuela’s role in drug smuggling and demanding its natural resources.

@BrazilBrian Promises of an audit will be made. A politicized audit.

Uruguay. Bolivia. Argentina. Honduras. Chile. I’be been trying to keep up. IG is time consuming and have to limit my use of social media but I can’t miss out on anymore election commentary. Se ha puesto loco las cosas…

Nicolás Maduro continues to lose what few friends he had left in Latin America & the Caribbean. Bolivia in October, now Honduras and St Vincent & Grenadines — the latter a small but important supporter for over 25 years.

Zohran Mamdani reminds me a bit of Gabriel Boric. Young, fantastic speaker, but also a good listener aware of his own inexperience— and started backing away from most radical ideas before he was even elected. We’ll see.

Adrián Morejón became the Cuban reliever with the most wins in a single MLB season.

The 26-year-old left-hander broke a record that dated back to 1967.

Despite President Trump’s tariffs, Brazilian exports actually rose in August — up 4%.

A 19% decline in shipments to U.S. was more than offset by increases of 44% to Mexico, 41% to Argentina and 31% to China.
