After a tight vote, questions emerged over Colombia’s preliminary count and official canvas. Here’s how they differ.

Voters rejected Petro's left and Uribe's right alike, handing the president-elect a mandate he can fill only by including the excluded.

By under a percentage point, the defense lawyer his supporters call 'El Tigre' inherits a divided, indebted nation he vows to rebuild.

Petro, Uribe and De la Espriella have all embraced the idea of a constituent assembly. Here’s why it remains controversial.

Bogotá published a draft decree that would tie import duties to how much of each supply chain Colombia already produces.

Even allies on the left concede the appointment that enabled it was a self-inflicted wound.

Ahead of the June 21 runoff, some firms are adding clauses to undo deals if Cepeda wins — echoing 2022's "Petro clause."

One built his fortune defending the accused; the other built his career avenging the dead. Both ask voters to trust their "professional" ties.

Front-runner Abelardo de la Espriella holds triple citizenship, and jurists are split on whether his US passport bars him from Colombia's presidency.

The runoff may decide Colombia’s next president, but neither finalist commands enough seats in Congress to govern alone. Both candidates would need broad coalitions to pass reforms and implement their legislative agendas.
