Green Alliance candidates claim primary ballots were missing

Green Alliance (Alianza Verde-AV) primary candidate Camilo Romero and declared primary winner Enrique Peñalosa both claimed that many AV ballots ran out or were absent altogether in polling stations across the country and abroad.
Even before Enrique Peñalosa, former mayor of Colombias capital city of Bogota, was chosen Sunday to represent the AV in Mays presidential race, multiple Colombian sources were saying that ballots for the AVs primary election were missing in parts of Colombia and abroad.

Romero and Peñalosa took to social media Sunday evening re-tweeting the messages as fast as they came in, while trying to alert the Election Registry and mass media about the lack of votes.
The Election Registry did not guarantee that Colombia could vote in the @GreenAlliance survey. THERE ARE NO BALLOTS wrote Romero as he tweeted at three of Colombias biggest media publications to get their attention: El Tiempo newspaper, El Espectador newspaper and Semana magazine.
