Description
Presidential Candidate Ángel Aníbal Guevara speaks at a campaign rally in front of a crowd of people. He holds two microphones to his mouth as he speaks gesturing with his right hand in the air. Standing in the foreground of the image is his running mate Ramiro Ponce Monroy. On March 8, 1982 Guevara won the presidential election although electoral fraud was claimed by other parties. A military coup prevented Guevara from assuming power and installed a three-man junta headed by General Efraín Ríos Montt.
El candidato presidencial Ángel Aníbal Guevara habla en un mitin de campaña frente a una multitud de personas. Sostiene dos micrófonos frente a su boca mientras habla al sostener su brazo en el aire con un gesto. Parado sobre la primera plana de la imagen se observa a su compañero de fórmula Ramiro Ponce Monroy. El 8 de marzo de 1982, Guevara ganó las elecciones presidenciales aunque el fraude electoral fue denunciado por otros partidos. Un golpe de estado militar impidió que Guevara asumiera el poder e instaló una junta de tres hombres encabezada por el general Efraín Ríos Montt.
