Former television personality Jimmy Morales obtained a resounding win in Guatemala's presidential run-off Sunday, dpa cited preliminary official results. With almost 96 per cent of the votes counted, the centre-right political outsider had about 68.3 per cent, the Central American country's Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE) said. His rival, former first lady Sandra Torres, a social democrat, had just under 31.7 per cent. In his winning address late Sunday, Morales, 46, vowed to transform Guatemala into "a new country with responsibility and rights." "Guatemalans voted for change. This is a vote that aims to end corruption," he told reporters.
