El Salvador schedules 2027 election as Bukele seeks third term
Original: El Salvador sets 2027 presidential election as Nayib Bukele seeks third term
El Salvador has set February 2027 for its presidential election, with President Nayib Bukele expected to run for a third term. Bukele, whose crackdown on gangs remains broadly popular, saw the country's top court allow consecutive re-election in 2021. Critics say another bid would further erode democratic checks, while supporters back his security record.
Why now: A widely popular incumbent pursuing a third term raises debate over democratic norms in El Salvador.
