Conservative populist Laura Fernández won Costa Rica’s presidency in a first-round victory, securing 48.3% of the vote versus 33.4% for her closest rival, Álvaro Ramos. She aims to continue the political agenda of outgoing President Rodrigo Chaves, while Ramos conceded and pledged a “constructive opposition.” Fernández’s win will be formally confirmed after a manual vote count begins Tuesday.#Costa #Rica #Conservative #populist #Laura #Fernández #wins #presidency #preliminary #results #show1770045817
