7:15 Mexican presidential candidate Obrador demands recount 6:17 Advisors for Mexico's Obrador threaten street protests-BBC 6:15 Mexico left-wing candidate demands recount of each vote-BBC
In other news, gravity keeps things from floating away...
And .. according to Mexican law .. it appears that a "recount" is automatic if the winning percentage is 1% or less - which it was purported to be.
So .. just like the dems, this guy is squealing like a stuck pig when it wasn't even necessary.
Sore/Loserman didn't have 20 million angry people who would feel streets, scream, act angry and riot.
It's a danged "Full Court Press!" The leftists are desperate!!!
Just like our left-wingers. They should head for the jungles of Borneo and start their own country.
The Gore precident. The damage that jack-a$$ did to US and world politics will be felt for the rest of our lives. When the US Presidential election was allowed to turn into a circus side show, every state, local, and foreign election won by the right will forever follow suit.
Taking a page from the 2000 Gore playbook, demand recounts over and over again, still hoping for a different outcome.
Sorry, Lopez-Obrador. Your margin of victory has already fled from Mexico, and perhaps shall NEVER return.
This could become a very interesting week in Mexico.
I have very little faith in the people running the election because the government doesn't run anything else without corruption. I can't imagine election results are an exception.
But I do have to say that it's remarkable that the PRI candidate finished so poorly that he's not even a factor in the upcoming election turmoil.
Mexico has become as polarized as the US. Conservatives vs. hard leftists. Moderate leftists are becoming irrelevant.
They learend from Gore, count and recount, until they win.
He's gonna go out like Bore, everyone laughing at him as long as he lives.
ObraGORE!
Considering that there are billions of dollars at stake for the future president, this will probably be a long, hard fight.
Sounds like Jimmuh Cartuh is down there, monitoring the election
The libs really are bad sports. They don't respect the democratic process.
You precisely defined my feelings about our government.
Bev Harris just ten dollars....
Probably advising Obrador how to drag things out.
You sir, are a geeneous.
