Many voters in those who went to the polls under heavy army protection in government trucks, others watched over by soldiers as they biked long hours, from villages.
Voting was hampered early in many areas by belays in ballot box deliveries and other obstacles.
Salvador Hidalgo, an executive at Empresas
He said that chaos at polling stations in the capital was caused by confusion among election officials.
Modulares, the company that computerized the country's voting list, said rebel disruption of roads was responsible for delivery delays outside San Salvador.
There were also scattered charges of election improprieties.
A spokesman for Rene Fortin Magana, presidential candidate of the Democratic Action Party, charged that members of an "unidentified party" stole ballots from about 15 ballot boxes.
FURTHER PROBLEMS were caused by a blackout that engulfed 90 percent of the country, and rebel bombed nine high voltage power transmission towers Saturday, officials said.

as erotic. But the protesters, she said, considered the film to be a promotion of violence against women.
Tim DePapee, president of the University Film Center, told the film, received a prize of more than $1 million for a most promising batch.
one protector had a sign that said, "Tim Depaea hates women." She was flashing the Kansan article in my face. Her argument was based on that article."
"All I wanted to do was tell them not to block the doorway, because it would be violating the city's fire code," said DePaephy, an Emporia sophomore. "Then about six women surrounded me, and without knowing anything about me, called me a rapist and said that I hated women.
DePaepe said that when he reached to pull down the woman's sign, she spit on him.
"We wouldn't show these movies if we had money," he said. "The decision to bring in the movie was a group decision. Several women were in the group. I was personally against it."
Tony Seike, Lawrence graduate student, said he was protesting the movie because it contained a racial slur.
About half of the protestors said they had not seen the film.
"A lot of people don't realize that paying money to see this is paying money to harm civilization," he said. "We're not going to stop violence against women until we stop supporting these movies. You see violence; you do violence."
The auditorium, which holds 208, was sold out both Friday and Saturday night. Saturday night
Denise Popovits, Lawrence junior, talked about the movie as the Saturday night audience milled about and discussed the film.
"the protestors definitely made too big a deal out of it," she said. "They were really scared."
"They were wrong in thinking that it promoted rape. It was just like going to see any other rape."
Eric McClary, Great Bend junior, said, "I was expecting more violence. The protestors made me want to see it. But this was nothing. I slept through it."
Steve Dwork, Overland Park senior and a former president of the University Film Society, said. "In order to be an independent organizer, we have to say we must, we have to show films that sell."
Dwork said the University Film Society's purpose wasn't to make money, but to bring in good, classical films. He said that because the Senate did not support the organization, showing popular films was the only way to make enough money to afford classical films.
The Marx Brothers films we showed earlier tonight brought in a maximum of no more than
60 people," he said. "The money cleared from the company will compensate the loss from the Mara Brothers."
"Last semester, we lost $300 when we showed Breaking Away, which is a great movie."
Mark Syverson, Lawrence graduate student and executive secretary of the Kansas Film Society, said that no group could show films without showing what people wanted to see.
"The actions of the protesters were deplorable," said Syverson, Lawrence graduate student. "They attacked someone who has done a great deal to promote films."
yesterday when it disrupted the elections by blacking out the entire country. The leftists also made it difficult to vote with stepped-up fighting in marginally controlled areas.

Many observers, in fact, predict that violence on the political field as well as the battlefield will take place.
Grave doubts surround a Duarte government's ability to rule. His stances supporting agrarian land reform and labor reform, and productive conversation with the guerrillas have made him an unpopular voice within the Salvadoran army, which is entrenched in the status quo.
ROBERT OPENHEIMER, a KU associate professor of history, said yesterday that he assumed a Duarte victory in May would change very little in El Salvador.
"About one-third of the country (guerrillas and their supporters) hate him so I assume that the war will go on and there will be more right-wing death squad killings," he said. "I think it is doubtful if he wires that he could stay in power for any period of time."
Robert D. Tomasak, KU director of Latin American Studies, in ask him, "Did Duarte were only a teacher?"
"He'll also have to get rid of the right-wing death souls," he said.
land and labor reform.
That task could run Duarte head-on into his opponent.
If the elections yesterday in El Salvador demonstrated anything, it is that a vote by only some of the people for only some of the people is negligibly democratic.
ROBERTO D'AUHUISSON is thought by many to be an integral part of right-wing paramilitary activity in El Salvador. That fact has led to a debate over the workable d'Aubuisson government also unlikely.
Until the ballot contains representatives of everyone and until everyone is allowed to vote without threat, the problems of El Salvador can't be solved, only postponed.
Gary Smith has spent more than three months reporting in El Salvador. In the summer of 1982, he traveled with a group of correspondents covering the battles there. In February Smith was in the politically torn country to observe the presidential campaigning.

However, under the new policy no guest of the opposite sex would be permitted in private areas after security hours had begun. McEhlene said. The guest could, however, have a host reserve a room in a hall or hall wing that housed members of the guest's sex.
"We're not promoting cohabitation," Mc-
SECURITY MONITORS posted in the hall lobby who enforce security hours would also enforce the new policy, he said. Templin and Joseph R. Pearson, the only KU halls that have no security monitors, would probably have them beginning next year.
Elhenie said. "I would feel better in that people would not feel they had the right."
McEllenie said that cohabitation in KU residence halls was a "gross inconvenience and violation of the rights of a roommate" and violated the spirit of the current guest policy.
THE BOARD HAS been waiting to receive a report on student response to the proposal from James Jeffrey, president of the Association of Students at Residence Halls, before acting, McElhenne said.
Jeffley distributed a notice to residence halls
Saturday night to publicize the visitation policy proposal.
However, some residents who read Jeffrey's explanation of the new policy said that they thought he impLIED that the policy would create a higher demand for she would provide lodging for men and women together.
Jeffrey could not be reached for comment yesterday.
Maureen Kelly, New Ulm, Minn., freshman,
and a resident of Corbin Hall, said, "There's no way they're going to fill this hall up with people,
if they make that kind of change."
