Mexico’s election season is right around the corner and two candidates are already leading in the polls. It looks likely that leftist candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador of Mexico’s MORENA party and conservative candidate Margarita Zavala Gómez del Campo of PAN will face off in July 2018.

Margarita Zavala Gómez del Campo and family.
Her husband, Felipe Calderón, won over AMLO in this freakish election which Mexico protested for well over a month in a vast presence in Mexico City in the center of town, el Zócalo, stopping traffic, work, etc. because they were all so certain, from information witnessed in their own home towns that the vote counting was totally corrupted, filthy.

Thanks for this information.
So much depends upon the outcome of the upcoming election.
Very best wishes and hope for Andrés Manuel López Obrador. There are so many right reasons people love him.
