Same party, endorsed by the former president and the party increased its numbers in their legislature.

Same - same, just more of it.

In my opinion, this is a very bad sign. Not a surprise, but not good at all for Mexico or the western hemisphere.

Morena exists because PRI wasn't left enough.

Mexico is, and always has been a VERY corrupt place.

Mexican candidate assassinations hit grim record ahead of Sunday's election

quote
MEXICO CITY, May 31 (Reuters) - Mexico's election is now the bloodiest in its modern history after a candidate running for local office in central Puebla state was murdered on Friday at a political rally, taking the number of assassinated candidates to 37 ahead of Sunday's vote.


How many of you were completely unaware of this?

This is why meaningful political discourse is all but dead here.

Is there such a thing anymore - meaningful political discourse?
How does one talk to an American hating Liberal that's bent on turning this great country into Venezuela or East Germany?

The stabilization of Mexico's economy is a good thing, it has been abysmal throughout my entire adult life. Seeing the inflationary period of the eighties was a huge eye opener for many.

But to me, crime is a bigger and more immediate problem. Here is an article from last week which directly compared the policies of each of the front runners: https://insightcrime.org/ne...kle-organized-crime/

I would have much preferred Galvez. That would have been a positive sign and step in the right direction.
