TL;DR Summary

Salvadorans are voting in an election widely expected to secure a second term for President Nayib Bukele, known as the "world's coolest dictator." Despite constitutional prohibitions on reelection and allegations of undermining checks and balances, Bukele's popularity remains strong, with traditional parties in disarray. His administration's crackdown on gangs, resulting in over 76,000 arrests and criticized for human rights abuses, has led to a significant drop in crime. Despite concerns about undemocratic power consolidation, many voters prioritize security, while Bukele's campaign focused on the threat of losing ground in the fight against gangs if his party didn't win.
