This article discusses about the elections in Vietnam. The big surprise in Vietnam's recent elections was the excellent showing of an unknown peace candidate, Troung Dinh Dzu. At a large political rally in Nha Trang, the short, heavyset Dzu told a cheering crowd that it was time to throw out the rascals in Saigon. Even Dzu's campaign oratory was not enough to stop the government landslide. Generals Nguyen Van Thieu and Nguyen Cao Ky received twice as many votes as Dzu. In Vietnam, however, it appears that the generals may have gone too far in masterminding an election which may well have sown the seeds for yet another revolution.
