(sort of old) UPDATE: She wasn’t on the online balloting, butMiss Urica won. Also, the AP story has a really dumb lede:

A woman who lost part of her leg when she stepped on a land mine won Angola’s Miss Landmine Survivor contest.

It’s like the copy editor spent way too much time on house style of “land mine” and missed Capt. Obvious.
