How different viewpoints frame this

Progressive

Early results favoring de la Espriella threaten Petro-era minimum-wage gains and peace talks that protect marginalized communities.

“Risk of reversal of social reforms and renewed violence”

Conservative

Voters appear to reject Petro's leftist policies on security and redistribution in favor of tougher enforcement.

“Rebuke of progressive governance and regional rightward shift”

Libertarian

The minimum-wage hike illustrates state labor intervention while ending peace talks risks new coercive security powers.

“Constraint of both welfare expansion and unchecked executive authority”

Devil's Advocate

All three views accept disputed early counts as settled and overlook the 2026 date inconsistency plus unverified causal links.

“Shared reliance on one incomplete data set across ideological frames”
