From the Chicago Tribune, July 20, 1984, by Storer Rowley of the Trib:

COLUMBIA, S.C. - President Reagan told a summit of 15 Caribbean leaders
here Thursday that the U.S. invasion of Grenada turned back a "communist
power grab," ...  He also denounced an election scheduled for November
by the leftist government of Nicaragua as "a Soviet-style sham election."
----------------------------

I recall that a few months ago someone posted a prediction that Mr. Reagan
would denounce the Nicaraguan election if Reagan did not like the results.
Apparently, he is not willing to wait for the results.  Can anyone provide
the text of the President's remarks on Nicaragua?  Also, how are election
preparations and campaigning proceeding?

Unfortunately, I will be leaving this location July 31, so responses after
that will have to posted.
