Hugo Chavez' buddy Evo Morales has been reelected president of Bolivia. It's a desperately poor country and he is its first indigenous president. How long democracy will last remains a question.
But as I hear from an observer there, Bolivians are required to present photo-IDs (and are fingerprinted) prior to voting--this is something Chicago with infinitely more resources can somehow not seem to be able to do.
P.S. But taking fingerprints to better collect taxes is another story.
