Continuing with the subject from yesterday regarding the parallel race for the general election’s legislative seats, these shots are of Alfonso Román running for district C-54, also in Santa Cruz, Bolivia.  I came across him while riding the micro bus and he was in between two lanes of traffic handing out campaign fliers.  So I caught up with him on my way back into the city and spent a few minutes photographing him and his campaign workers.  He was definitely working hard for his congressional seat – chasing after any car or bus that showed the promise of going just slow enough that he could keep up with it long enough to stuff a handful of fliers into each open window available.
