\u0026 # x27; Hitler and Lenin \u0026 # x27; want to become mayor

The struggle for mayorization in the Yungar district in Peru is between two candidates named after historical figures who had nothing to do with democracy.

To the Peruvian radio station RPP, Alba Sánchez said that his father had named him after the former German dictator without being aware of Hitler's role in world history. The candidate mayor considered changing his first name, but in the end he saw it because he did not want to hurt his father.

Alba Sánchez was already mayor of Yungar between 2011 and 2014. His opponent Lenin Vladimir Rodríguez Valverde is new in Peruvian politics.

The Yungar in the Andes has about 3000 inhabitants.
