Yamandú Orsi and Carolina Cosse Win Uruguay Election with 49.5%, Left Returns to Power
Nov 24, 2024, 08:30 PM
Uruguay held its presidential runoff election on Sunday, November 24, 2024, with a voter turnout of 89.4%. The closely contested race was between Yamandú Orsi and Álvaro Delgado. Orsi, of the leftist Frente Amplio and running mate Carolina Cosse, won the election with approximately 49.5% of the votes against Delgado's 45.9%, according to early projections. Delgado conceded defeat, and Orsi's victory marks the return of the left to power after five years. Orsi, a protégé of former president José 'Pepe' Mujica, becomes the first president since the return to democracy not born in the capital. He is set to lead the country for the next five years.
