“The leftist candidate in Mexico’s presidential election is taking the country’s electoral institute to court in the next step of his quest to prove the vote was rigged, his party said on Tuesday.

The federal electoral institute or IFE is the body in charge of running the election.

Aides of maverick leftist Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said a criminal complaint would be lodged against the IFE’s nine board members for letting private companies air pre-election TV ads in favor of conservative Felipe Calderon, who won the July 2 vote by a tiny margin.”
