Title: Nicaragua's 1996 Elections and Results
Authors: Maureen E. Taft-Morales, Foreign Affairs and National Defense Division 
Abstract: The acrimony surrounding Nicaragua's recent elections has raised new concerns for political conciliation and stability there. Nicaraguans voted for president, the legislature, and other offices on Sunday, October 20, 1996. It was more than a month later, however, before rightist Arnoldo Aleman was officially declared the winner of the presidential race.
