COSTA RICAN SUPPORTERS OF CANDIDATE PACHECO CELEBRATE, 2002-04-07 (photo)

Supporters of Costa Rican presidential candidate Abel Pacheco celebrate after they closed the ballot boxes in San Jose April 7, 2002. Conservative psychiatrist and television personality Pacheco won a historic second round presidential election in Costa Rica on Sunday, but voters in this proud Central American democracy stayed away from the polls in record numbers. Pacheco, of the center right Social Christian Unity Party, claimed victory as 80 percent of votes counted showed him with 58 percent of the vote over opposition candidate Rolando Araya of the centrist National Liberation party with 42 percent.
