Luis Arce secures big victory in Bolivia election
The result, which was a vindication to Evo Morales’s MAS party, also gave majorities in both houses of Congress.

The runner-up was centrist former President Carlos Mesa with just less than 29 percent. Conservative Luis Fernando Camacho, one of the leaders of the protest movement that helped drive Morales out of the country a year ago, received only 14 percent of the vote. MAS also won majorities in bot...
