Lula's PT to elect new leader

Brazil's ruling Partido dos Trabalhadores is set to elect a new leader Sunday to replace Jose Genoino, who was forced to resign following allegations of corruption. The Sunday election is expected to be an informal decision by members of whether the party should return to its leftist roots or espouse the centrism embraced by President Lula da Silva. (Reuters)
