Colombia: Meet the candidate vying to be Bogota's first female mayor
Claudia López, a center-left candidate who is openly gay, is vying to become the first female mayor of the Colombian capital Bogota. “I feel deeply proud of the woman I am, with my virtues and my shortcomings, which obviously are many, and I make an effort every day to improve,” says López, who is among the leading candidates to win the election and whose victory would make history in a nation that has historically been governed by men of the liberal and conservative elites.
