El Salvador's President Defies Constitution, Registers for Reelection.

El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele has registered to run for reelection next year, despite objections from legal experts and opposition figures who say the country's constitution prohibits his candidacy. Bukele's approval ratings are running above 80% in many polls, following a reduction in crime stemming from his harsh-but-popular crackdown on gangs. While constitutional bans on reelection were once common in Latin America, those term limits have been removed, overturned or ignored in a number of cases, including Honduras, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Bolivia.
