A - Z political terms
Here we go......this one will be a lot harder, but I'm sure we can do it 
I have decided to do it Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, it was just the easiest thing to do. LaBurra has kindly offered to do this also, so we will be alternating back and forth.
Category: Political terms/titles/words etc.
This category is a little more confusing, but, you can just say anything that has to do with anything political....so, it's actually really broad if you think about it...but it will be much harder than usual. Which makes it fun. 
I will say the first word that begins with "A", the next person will post a word that starts with "B", then "C" and so on. Please put your answer in Spanish, and provide an English translation.
My Word:
Alcalde - mayor
Have fun!
