- Propelled by the popularity of outgoing President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the ruling Morena party is projected to win big during Mexico’s nationwide elections.
- Every seat in Congress is up for grabs, as well as the presidency and more than 19,000 state and local offices.
- Claudia Sheinbaum, the Morena party presidential candidate, enjoys a strong lead over her next closest rival, Xochitl Galvez of the coalition “Strength and Heart for Mexico”.
- If, as predicted, either Galvez or Sheinbaum wins, Mexico will vote in its first female president.
- Violence, however, continued to mar the election process, with sporadic reports of threats and attacks on polling stations, leaving at least two people dead.
