Publius Pundit - VAST MEXICO CITY PROTEST

“Leftist presidential candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who lost Mexico’s July 2 presidential election by a narrow margin, has brought his supporters to the streets in a bid to overturn the election, on claims of fraud. The AMLO party, PRD, has yet to substantiate its claim that the election has been conducted in any way other than exemplarily. Observers from the European Union and other places have said it was clean. I was in Tijuana for the election and the AMLO party (PRD) observer also said that what he saw as clean, when I asked at a polling station. But it appears that the AMLO voters are angry at the result and insisting it must be due to fraud. If they could just produce proof! But it seems to me that the problem is the result.”
