Nicaragua Elections

Frederick E. Snyder, lecturer of Latin American law and assistant dean at the Law School, visited Nicaragua last week with a private group to monitor Sunday's elections.

His findings: not only were the first Sandanista elections not a "sham," as per the Reagan Administration, but they were downright upright.

"I found massive support for the Sandanistas, and a sense of freedom and security that is not characteristic of totalitarian regimes," Snyder reported in Thursday's Globe.
