Jose “Pepe” Mujica, 74, presidential candidate of Uruguay’s Frente Amplio ruling party, talks to supporters after the country’s general elections in Montevideo, Sunday, Oct. 25, 2009. Mujica, a blunt-talking former guerrilla seeking to maintain the left’s hold on power in Uruguay, easily got the most votes Sunday, but failed to win the majority needed to avoid a runoff.
