Calderón Scrapes Home
Felipe Calderón, Mexico’s ruling party candidate, has scraped home to win the presidential election. Following Wednesday’s recount, the pro-business, PAN party leader won the backing of 35.88% of the electorate against 35.31% earned by his nearest rival, left-of-center Andrés Manual López Obrador (AMLO). However, AMLO has said he will challenge the result. The electoral court must settle any challenges by the end of August and must announce a new president by September 6.
