Ortega maintains slight lead according to new poll

Daniel Ortega maintains a seven point lead over Fabio Gadea in CID-Gallup's most recent poll (Boz). 
The numbers are wildly different from a June poll (from a different polling agency) that had Ortega at 57% and Gadea at 14%. My favorite line and probably saddest one from La Prensa's article has to be
[Ortega] competes for the sixth time in search of a third term in contravention of two constitutional prohibitions that prevent him from participating in the race.
Sandra Torres in Guatemala, on the other hand, will have to wait a few more minutes before she finds out whether the constitution applies to her.
