D'Aubuisson concedes finishing 2nd
By United Press International
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador — RIGHTIST candidate Roberto d'Aubusson conceded yesterday that he finished second in El Salvador's presidential voting and criticized a threatened group of election officials.
In his first news conference since Sunday's election, D'Aubuisson said final tallies would show that Joe Napoleon Duarte's Christian Democratic Party, the PDC, would finish with just over 44 percent of the vote.
He estimated his own Nationalist Republican Alliance, ARENA, would place second with 31 percent of the vote. In six other parties would trulr far behind.
The Central Electoral Council has released no new totals from Sunday's voting since Wednesday. The last vote in the election was absenion in second place behind Durie.
ELECTORAL RULES for the two top contenders to meet in a run-off election if no candidate gets more than half the votes D'Auburnson said he support from other conservative parties. run-off expected in April or early May.
In Washington, U.S. Ambassador
Tony Pickerling, the runoff
would place him at the head of
the race.
May 6, and the guerrillas' attempts to disrupt the election meant the Salvadoran army would urgently need the emergency $61.7 million in military assistance Congress is now considering.
Pickering said yesterday that the heavy turnout was "a triumph of the people." He said that the extent of the change in procedures had been exaggerated.
Reporters and observers, he said, saw people being turned away because of bureaucratic foul-ups. They did not stay around, he said, to observe people in public, despite the confusion. "I have never seen such patience in a crowd," he said.
PICKERING SAID more than 75 percent of the Salvadoran population voted in last Sunday's election despite violence and violence from left-wing guerrillas.
He estimated that 35,000 people who had their identity cards taken by guerrillas or were blocked from going to the polls were prevented from voting. Theiders he, said, lost their lives in battles with guerrilla elections day election.
D'Aubusson, who during the campaign repeatedly called Duarte a communist and a traitor, yesterday offered his good wishes to the PDC and Duarte "for their great work" in winning public support.
THE POLITICAL LEADER con-
denamed a communist anti Wednesday by the Secret Anti-Communist Army, or ESA, the nation's most active death square. It threatened to "punish" election officials for their part in the election, that marred Sunday's election.
"Really, this seems to me evil, and those gentlemen do not know the damage they are causing us internationally," said d'Aubuisson. "This type of activity in no way favors the Salvadoran people."
D'Aubuisson has himself long been accused of leading death squad activities, including the 1960 murder of Archbishop Oscar Arruello Romero.
He criticized American congressmen, mostly liberal Democrats, who cited those accusations as a reason to cut off financial support to El Salvador if he became president. He said such efforts were part of a "disinformation campaign that has come from all over the world."
IN AN IMPORTANT concession to the Christian Democrats, d'Aubusson agreed the electoral registry used in Sunday's voting should be dropped before the second round because many names were missing from the list.
He said meetings had been arranged with PDC officials, who first opposed the registry, to draft legislation abolishing the lists.
