Latest Poll - Cochabamba Mayor Race

Universidad Mayor de San Simón Political Science Institute:

Gonzalo Terceros (CU) - 22.7%
Gonzalo Lema (MAS) - 14.7%
None - 14.6%
Edwin Mallon (UCS) - 12%
Undecided - 11%
Jhonny Antezana (NFR) - 7%

Mallon is a well-known television personality, who hosts his own show called "Golpes de la Vida." This show exploits (in my opinion) poor people who come on air, where they cry, plead and otherwise publicly beg for financial or other material assistance. Often these rural campesinos come to the studio speaking only quechua and all receive a bag of rice as a consolation "prize." Some people call in offering to pay their medical bills or a charitable doctor offers free medical treatment, but on the whole, there ought to be a better way of doing things.
