(BUENOS AIRES, Argentina) — A massive blackout left tens of millions of people without electricity in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay on Sunday after an unexplained failure in the neighboring countries’ interconnected power grid. Authorities were working frantically to restore power, but by mid-afternoon nearly half of Argentina’s 44 million people were still in the dark. Voters cast ballots by the light of cell phones in gubernatorial elections in Argentina.
