Colombia closed its border with Venezuela in Norte de Santander and imposed alcohol and fuel sales restrictions across major cities ahead of Sunday's presidential runoff between Abelardo De La Espriella and Iván Cepeda. The security measures come as both campaigns hold final rallies and observers like U.S. Senator Bernie Moreno arrive in Bogotá to monitor the vote.
The runoff on Sunday will determine whether conservative Abelardo or leftist Iván Cepeda wins the presidency. Border restrictions and alcohol bans are set to remain through election day, with security forces on alert for any disruptions.
