LA PAZ: Hundreds of protesters took to the streets Monday in Bolivia to denounce alleged election fraud and call for an audit after the country’s new center-right president was announced. Rodrigo Paz, a 58-year-old economist, won the second round of voting on Sunday with 54.5 percent of the votes against former right-wing president Jorge Quiroga. Protesters shouted “fraud” and attempted to march on the square in La Paz where the president and parliamentary offices are located, before being dispersed by police without any reported clashes.
