Description
Presidential candidate Ángel Aníbal Guevara raises his hands as he speaks at a campaign rally. He is wearing a ring and wrist watch on his left hand and wrist, respectively. The logos of the Institutional Democratic Party (PID) and National Unity Front (FUN) are in the background. 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.
