[edit] List of Presidents

Added to the list:

  • Francisco Castellón
  • Gobierno Bipartidista (I don't know the correct translation, Bipartite Government doesn't sound good)
  • Revolutionary Junta (in Spanish; Junta Revolucionaria de Gobierno)

My source is the Ministry of Education, the information is on the 4-6 grade text books, and on their website; mecd.gob.ni (in Spanish). If you think this info is accurate and the source reliable, I'll proceed with fixing the links on Succeded by and Preceeded by and writing the missing bios. --Magicartpro 07:17, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

The external reference I've added appears reliable from a cursory examination. It shows the "bipartisan" presidents (Conservative and Liberal); I think "Gobierno Bipartidista" is superfluous. J. Peterka 13:48, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

The original source of the link you provided is here, it's from the Ministry of Education's website. There was in fact a two-party junta ruling the country from June 24 to November 15, 1857 (Jerez/Martínez) and I think this article got to reflect that and not listing the two Presidents individually. --Magicartpro 21:10, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
Please feel free to replace the external link I provided, if you think the Ministry of Education's website is more appropriate. J. Peterka 21:42, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Turnout

It is stated on a table that turnout out was 100% where I think that what is meant is 100% of the votes. I do not think that is likely. Turnout is the percentage of registered voters who voted. I think that instead of turnout we should have another word. I will make th change.Brusegadi 02:10, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
