Mexico Awaits Result




Mexican authorities begin a recount of votes today, Wednesday, in a presidential race that has become too close to call. Felipe Calderón of the ruling PAN party and Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) of the PRD party are neck and neck, although the preliminary vote count showed Calderón had a 1% advantage over his rival, gathering 36.38% of the votes against AMLO’s 35.34%. Early results also show that Congress will, once again, be divided.
