ASUNCION, Paraguay — Paraguay is preparing to hold a constitutional referendum today on whether citizens living in Argentina, Spain, the U.S. and elsewhere outside the country can vote. Paraguay consistently loses many citizens because decades of dictatorship and poverty have closed off opportunities at home.

An estimated 1.5 million Paraguayans fled into exile during the 1954-89 regime of Gen. Alfredo Stroessner.
