Election result in hands of 7 Mexico judges
By Julie Watson
Associated Press
MEXICO CITY — The future of Mexico's young democracy lies in the hands of seven judges who have the final word on a disputed presidential election that has strained class divisions and threatened the nation's stability, with one candidate calling for millions to protest.
The magistrates — including Mexico's first female district judge and a respected author on ethics and democracy — have shown toughness and independence in thousands of electoral disputes, ruling against all three major parties.
But they have never faced a challenge like this. Mexicans are counting on them to find a peaceful solution to a battle between Felipe Calderon, the ruling party candidate backed by the business community, and Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, a fiery populist.
An official count gave Calderon a lead of less than 0.6 percent. Despite the uncertainty, he said Friday he was setting up a committee to lay the groundwork for his administration.
