El Salvadors Police Chief Resigns

I just read this article from the Washington Post. I find this interesting, that three top officials in the national police would be caught up in scandal. During out visit to El Salvador we noticed and increased military presence. It was explained to us that the national Police had requested an increased military presence in anticipation of the elections. According to this article, there may be connection to drug dealers as well. If this is true, is there any one still wondering why people are worried about fraud in the elections? If this is true and the police, Military and Drug Dealers are all in bed together how can anyone expect an honest transfer of power with money like that on the line? Just my opinion...
