Electoral battle amongst Argentine first ladies

- Submitted by Erwin Cifuentes. The first ladies of current President Nestor Kirchner and his predecessor, Eduardo Duhalde, are fighting for a senate seat in a province around Buenos Aires. Both have claimed to be direct political descendents of Evita Peron in order to attract attention to their campaigns.
