“El Norte” tallies few votes in Mexico election

Tagged: ,

“Blame it on a bureaucratic voting process, disillusionment with politics back home or lack of time while juggling jobs, but only a fraction of the Mexicans living in the United States took advantage of their first opportunity to vote from abroad.

Of the estimated 6 million to 7 million Mexicans of voting age in the United States, only 40,000 registered to vote by mail in Mexico’s presidential election on Sunday — a lower number than expected after years of calls for a foreign vote.”
