Fiction writer new president Costa Rica

Carlos Alvarado Quesada won the presidential election in Costa Rica by a large margin.

The 38-year-old Quesada becomes the youngest president in the modern history of Costa Rica. Quesada is a former minister and writes fiction books. Quesada's election victory is a great victory for the government party he is from.

Muñoz, 43 years old and a former television journalist and singer of religious songs, opted in his campaign for a recovery of what he calls the 'traditional values ​​of Costa Rica'. In this way he wants to stop gay marriage and he is against abortion. The progressive Quesada attacked Muñoz and said he wants to be there for everyone. 'I will protect all people, from disabled people to people with other sexual preferences,' Quesada said.
