(Reuters) -Nicaraguans went to the polls on Sunday in a presidential election marked by longtime President Daniel Ortega’s ruthless campaign to extend his tight grip on power by jailing opponents in a contest the United States and other critics dismiss as a sham.
Small lines of voters formed in the capital Managua just after polls opened at 7:00 a.m. local time (1300 GMT), with a few proudly showing off their ink-stained thumbs after casting their ballots. Voting ends at 6:00 p.m.
