In Colombia, campaign rallies for leading presidential canditates have ended.
Opinion polls suggest leftist Gustavo Petro is the frontrunner.
He is promising to phase out fossil fuels - in a country where oil still accounts for a third of foreign revenue.
The wild card in the race is 77-year-old populist entrepreneur and anti-corruption crusader Rodolfo Hernandez.
His recent rise in the polls has surprised many opening up what had largely been a two-horse race.
