[00:00.00]On Sunday, Argentinians voted for their country's next president. [00:05.45]Many opinion surveys showed that ruling party candidate Daniel Scioli [00:11.57]would be the clear winner. Mr. Scioli is governor of Buenos Aires province [00:18.40]and the chosen successor of Argentina's president, [00:22.23]Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner. [00:24.56]But the surveys were wrong. [00:27.48]Mr. Scioli won 35.9 percent, but not enough to win the presidency. [00:35.19]Mauricio Macri, the mayor of Buenos Aires, [00:38.81]finished in second place with 35.2 percent of the vote. [00:44.14]This means Argentina will hold its first-ever runoff election next month. [00:50.89]Voters will choose between the two men on November 22. [00:55.77]Mr. Macri says he wants to lift some financial controls [01:00.64]and trade restrictions in an effort to help the country's economy. [01:05.38]The 56-year-old mayor formerly led the Boca Juniors, [01:10.12]a popular football club. [01:12.33]Mr. Scioli has promised to defend the central ideas [01:17.23]of what observers are calling "kirchnerism." [01:20.62]These are populist beliefs built around trade protectionism, [01:25.68]social welfare programs and defense of the working class. [01:30.96]The 58-year-old governor adds [01:33.87]that he will seek a more measured approach to economic reform. [01:38.26]Under Argentine law, [01:40.34]a candidate must have more than 45 percent of the vote [01:44.79]to be declared the winner. [01:46.56]A candidate can also win with at least 40 percent of the vote [01:51.18]and a margin of 10 points over the next candidate. [01:55.45]I'm Jonathan Evans.

On Sunday, Argentinians voted for their country's next president.

周日，阿根廷開(kāi)始進(jìn)行全國(guó)大選。

Many opinion surveys showed that ruling party candidate Daniel Scioli would be the clear winner. Mr. Scioli is governor of Buenos Aires province and the chosen successor of Argentina's president, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.

多項(xiàng)民意調(diào)查顯示，很明顯，執(zhí)政黨候選人丹尼爾·肖利將成為贏家。肖利先生是布宜諾斯艾利斯省省長(zhǎng)和阿根廷總統(tǒng)克里斯蒂娜·費(fèi)爾南德斯·基什內(nèi)爾的欽定接班人。

Top opposition presidential candidate Mauricio Macri dances and sings after speaking to supporters in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Sunday, Oct. 25, 2015.

But the surveys were wrong. Mr. Scioli won 35.9 percent, but not enough to win the presidency. Mauricio Macri, the mayor of Buenos Aires, finished in second place with 35.2 percent of the vote.

但民意調(diào)查結(jié)果是錯(cuò)誤的，肖利先生獲得了35.9%的投票，但不足以贏得總統(tǒng)選舉。而布宜諾斯艾利斯市市長(zhǎng)，毛里西奧·馬克里，獲得35.2%的選票，位居第二。

This means Argentina will hold its first-everrunoff election next month. Voters will choose between the two men on November 22.

這意味著阿根廷將在下月舉行首次決選。選民將于11月22日在兩人之間進(jìn)行投票。

Mr. Macri says he wants to lift some financial controls and trade restrictions in an effort to help the country's economy. The 56-year-old mayor formerly led the Boca Juniors, a popular football club. Visit the website www.chinavoa.com to get more information!

馬克里先生表示，他希望解除一些金融管制與貿(mào)易限制來(lái)幫助該國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)?，F(xiàn)年56歲的原市長(zhǎng)帶領(lǐng)博卡青年隊(duì)，一個(gè)流行的足球俱樂(lè)部。

Mr. Scioli has promised to defend the central ideas of what observers are calling "kirchnerism."These are populist beliefs built around trade protectionism, social welfare programs and defense of the working class. The 58-year-old governor adds that he will seek a more measured approach to economic reform.

肖利先生已經(jīng)承諾捍衛(wèi)觀察家們所呼吁的核心理念“基什內(nèi)爾主義”(kirchneris)。這些都是圍繞貿(mào)易保護(hù)主義、社會(huì)福利計(jì)劃與保衛(wèi)工人階級(jí)而構(gòu)建的民粹主義信仰。這位58歲的州長(zhǎng)補(bǔ)充道，他將采取更加正確謹(jǐn)慎的措施來(lái)進(jìn)行經(jīng)濟(jì)改革。

Under Argentine law, a candidate must have more than 45 percent of the vote to be declared the winner. A candidate can also win with at least 40 percent of the vote and a margin of 10 points over the next candidate.

根據(jù)阿根廷選舉法，支持率最高的總統(tǒng)候選人得票率超過(guò)45％，或得票率至少40％且領(lǐng)先第二名候選人10％以上方可當(dāng)選。
