Florida 2000 in Mexico

god help mexico...

Teams of lawyers are girding for a massive challenge of the results, threatening a crisis reminiscent of the disputed 2000 U.S. presidential election. Legal experts and campaign strategists here say the winner of Sunday's ballot might not be officially declared for up to two months.

A preliminary, uncertified count by Mexico's electoral authority shows Calderón with 36.38 percent of the vote and López Obrador with 35.34 percent. But the electoral authority, which will begin its official count on Wednesday, will eventually cede control of the contest to a special elections court.

PAN and calderón represent the holders of the real power in mexico - the super-rich... they are also the ones backed by the super-rich and the advocates of unfettered corporatocracy in the u.s... given the level of corruption still rampant in mexico, what are the chances the outcome will be unsullied...? let's pray that THEIR election doesn't get stolen the way ours was...
