EASTERN REPUBLIC OF URUGUAY
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 31 OCTOBER 2004

Parties
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* FA-EP-NM - Frente Amplio - Encuentro Progresista - Nueva Mayoria  
   (Broad Front - Progressive Encounter - New Majority)
* PC - Partido Colorado (Red Party)
* PInd - Partido Independente (Independent Party)
* Pint - Partido Intransigente (Intransigent Party)
* PL - Partido Liberal (Liberal Party)
* PN-B - Partido Nacional-Blancos (National Party-Whites)
* PT - Partido de los Trabajadores (Workers Party)
* PUC - Partido Unión Cívica (Civic Union Party)

Note that the name Red Party has no socialist connotations: the Reds and 
the Whites were rival factions in 19th century Uruguay and these names 
have persisted. Both are today centre-right parties.

The website of the Uruguayan Electoral Court must be the most confusing 
and badly designed election website in the world. It gives no candidate 
names (these have to be obtained from media websites), and it appears to 
draw no distinction between votes cast for President and votes cast for
Senators or Representatives. I am assuming that these are figures for 
the Presidential ballot but I may be wrong.
