Como todo el mundo sabe, las elecciones de la \u00faltima d\u00e9cada se hicieron bajo la mira de los actores armados. Entre todos ellos, los paramilitares fueron particularmente efectivos influyendo en la elecci\u00f3n de alcaldes, concejales, diputados, gobernadores, representantes a la C\u00e1mara, y senadores. Pues bien, \u00bfqu\u00e9 pas\u00f3 en las elecciones presidenciales de \u00e9sta \u00e9poca?, \u00bffueron \u00e9stas las \u00fanicas elecciones que no les interesaron a los paras?<\/p>\n

En un r\u00e9gimen presidencial como el colombiano, en el cu\u00e1l el Presidente es el centro de la pol\u00edtica, es bastante improbable que las elecciones presidenciales pasaran desapercibidas. Esto es aun m\u00e1s improbable si se tiene en cuenta que en 1994 el Cartel de Cali ya hab\u00eda buscado influir en la campa\u00f1a del ex presidente Samper.<\/p>\n

Adem\u00e1s de poco probable, el papel de los grupos armados en las elecciones presidenciales de la \u00faltima d\u00e9cada est\u00e1 probado. Dos investigaciones acad\u00e9micas encontraron relaciones estad\u00edsticamente significativas entre las votaciones del ex presidente Uribe en 2002 y 2006 y el grado de control que ejercieron tanto grupos paramilitares como guerrilleros en los municipios.<\/p>\n

La primera de estas investigaciones es el libro de Rodrigo Losada \u201cAtlas sobre las elecciones presidenciales de Colombia 1974-2002\u201d. Una de las conclusiones del texto es que en zonas con actividad armada de los grupos guerrilleros se vot\u00f3 menos por Uribe. La segunda investigaci\u00f3n es el art\u00edculo de Miguel Garc\u00eda titulado \u201cBajo la mira de los actores armados\u201d. Seg\u00fan Garc\u00eda \u201cen los municipios controlados por los paramilitares la candidatura de Uribe gozo de mayor apoyo electoral\u201d. <\/p>\n

Las recientes declaraciones de Salvatore Mancuso sobre su supuesto apoyo a las campa\u00f1as del ex presidente Uribe vendr\u00edan a reafirmar estos estudios. A pesar de ello, no es claro si el ex presidente Uribe conoci\u00f3 o toler\u00f3 este apoyo. De hecho, convencido de su inocencia, Uribe prometi\u00f3 denunciar a Mancuso penalmente.<\/p>\n

El ex presidente est\u00e1 en lo correcto cuando afirma que es inocente hasta que un juez demuestre lo contrario. Sin embargo, Uribe olvida que la presunci\u00f3n de inocencia no es un argumento suficiente para negar que, con o sin su conocimiento, el control paramilitar influy\u00f3 en sus triunfos electorales. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
