Mr Petro, a former mayor of capital Bogota and current senator, promised to fight inequality with free university education, pension reforms and high taxes on unproductive land. He won 50.4% of the votes to Mr Hernandez\u2019s 47.3%, with almost all ballots counted, according to results released by election authorities. Mr Hernandez had promised to shrink government and to finance social programmes by stopping corruption. Mr Petro\u2019s running mate, Francia M\u00e1rquez, became the first black woman to be elected vice president in the country.<br \/>\nThe 40-year-old is a single mother, former housekeeper and lawyer whose opposition to illegal mining resulted in threats and a grenade attack in 2019. The election was held amid a backdrop of rising inequality, inflation and violence &#8211; factors that led voters in the first round last month to punish long-governing centrist and right-leaning politicians and pick two outsiders for the run-off contest.<br \/>\nMore than 42% of the country\u2019s population lives in poverty, according to the World Bank.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BOGOTA Colombia has elected former guerrilla fighter Gustavo Petro as its first left-wing president, media reports revealed Monday.
