Colombians will vote in a run-off election between far-right lawyer Abelardo de la Espriella and leftist senator Ivan Cepeda, who offer starkly different platforms on crime, economic reform, and social policy. De la Espriella, a nationalist with no political experience, promises a crackdown on crime and a shift away from the current administration's policies. Cepeda, whose father was assassinated during Colombia's conflict, advocates deepening economic and social reforms. The election represents a critical choice between continuity and change for the country.
