With the approach of the El Salvador presidential election March 15, 2009, I share pictures of Chalatenango state in El Salvador during my work there in 2000. The momentum of FMLN (Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front or in Spanish the Frente Farabundo Martí para la Liberación Nacional) candidate Mauricio Funes over ARENA (Nationalist Republican Alliance) candidate Rodrigo Avila could finally give FMLN a presidential election victory for the former revolutionary group turned political party.
