Panamanians head to the polls to vote in an election that has been consumed by unfolding drama surrounding the country’s ex-president, despite not even being on the ballot. Voters in the Central American nation on Sunday will weigh promises of economic prosperity and migratory crackdowns with a corruption scandal.

A Panama nian flag flies on Ancon hill backdropped by the skyline of Panama City, Thursday, May 2, 2024. Panama nians will elect a new president on May 5th.

While lacking Martinelli’s spunk, Mulino has coasted on his connection to the ex-president. He was rarely seen without his blue “Martinelli Mulino 2024” cap and promised to help Martinelli if elected.
