Another One! Colombia Does the RIGHT Thing. Now on to Brazil

Sarah Anderson : Jun 22, 2026  PJ Media

"Today the majority of Colombians chose the path of economic freedom, prosperity, unwavering security, and telling organized transnational crime and drug trafficking ENOUGH ALREADY. Freedom advances across all of Latin America and there is no turning back." -Argentine President Javier Milei

BCN Editor's Note: The following was pointed out on X and verified by Grok AI: "Colombia just hand-counted 99.8% of their 25+ million ballots in under 3 hours. Paper ballots. Photo ID required. Counted on-site at the polling tables right in front of witnesses and party observers. Minimal mail-ins. Results basically done the same night. Yet in many blue states, they can't count a few million ballots in a single day—sometimes it takes weeks to 'find the votes.' Why is secure, transparent vote counting so much harder here?..." The SAVE act must be passed! -Aimee Herd, Breaking Christian News

[PJMedia.comAs I've been reporting, Colombia had presidential elections last month, and on Sunday, there was a run-off between the Donald Trump-like right-winger, Abelardo de la Espriella (aka El Tigre), and current president Gustavo Petro's hand-picked socialist successor, Iván Cepeda.

Well, we can say that another country in Latin America has taken a swing to the right because El Tigre won narrowly, though I'm willing to bet Petro and his folks were up to some funny business. I just don't buy that nearly half the country voted for the commie... or, at least, half of the 63.6% of people who showed up to the polls in Colombia and beyond.

For what it's worth, Colombian expats who live in North America and Europe overwhelmingly voted for de la Espriella. I'm seeing Colombian journalists on social media proclaiming that they are ready to return to their country.

According to my sources, El Tigre got about 49.66% of the vote, while Cepeda got about 48.70%. Petro is already throwing a fit on social media, demanding a recount, but the momentum is in full swing. President-elect de la Espriella posted "Thank you, Colombia" on social media, and the mood where he is watching the polls is pretty celebratory.

The mood across Colombia is celebratory too. I've seen it online, and I'm hearing it from my guy on the ground, Matt, a US veteran who now lives there, who has been an invaluable source to me lately. He said he's hearing cars honking and fireworks going off where he lives... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
