Guatemalan presidential election, 1993
Indirect presidential elections were held in Guatemala on 5 June 1993. They was sparked by the 1993 Guatemalan constitutional crisis in which President Jorge Serrano Elías had attempted a self-coup. The result was a victory for Ramiro de León Carpio, who won unopposed in the second round of voting, whilst the army-backed Arturo Herbruger was elected vice-president.[1]
