ELECTIONS IN LIBERIA
Liberians went to the polls today to take part in the country's first general elections since the end of a Civil War in 2003. Voters began lining up before dawn to cast their ballots for legislative representatives and the presidential contenders. Although twenty-two candidates are running for president, the election is down to two top contenders -- a former soccer superstar and an ex-official from the World Bank. Both promise to restore running water and electrical services to Liberia's capital city.
