A Mexican election ping for all of you here.

I have been translating a lot since Sunday evening, given that I have had this week off, but I'm going to be winding down my work on this, since I resume work Monday. Right now there is one important event keeping my attention, and that is this particular demonstration scheduled for tomorrow. I'm going to keep a very close eye on it and if I see anything that requires further posting today, I'll put it up. And I will keep track of what goes on tomorrow, so you can all look for more from me on that.

And I have also gone back and added a unique keyword to all of the articles I have translated on the Mexican election in case any of you would like to review them. The keyword is "STJTRANSLATION" which, if entered into a "keyword" search, will return all eleven threads on the translated articles dealing with the Mexican election I have put up during the week.

StJacques: Thanks so much for your hard work. Spanish (and Tex-Mex Spanish at that, not the high-class version the media uses) is my second language, and it's taxing on the brain to translate it for others' consumption, so I know how much energy you put into this.

Thank you for your translations and the heads-up on possible mass demonstrations and violence. I'm sure the MSM will continue to depict Obrador as a social-democrat type liberal reformer instead of the Chavez-type latent Marxist that he really is.

Again, thanks. This is very interesting. About the very last thing we want or need is another Hugo Chaves wannabe right on our southern border.

Last time wife and I visited Mexico city, policemen carrying shotguns were at almost every corner in the Zona Rosa...

Another thought -- you should probably add your keyword to the election night thread where you translated info from the two newspapers for everyone's benefit. That thousand-plus posts thread's a keeper, that's for sure.

Thanks for your great work!

ObraGore sounds like he's going to use the same (original)Mayor Daley/Huey Long style bullying tactics that got him into the election in the first place despite the questionable legality of him even being on the ballot.

Thank you for all your work! And the careful footnoting!

I see the left is, as usual, ready to rumble and the police are going to be very careful not to give them a pretext for causing a disturbance. Well, a really, really bad disturbance, at any rate - I'm sure Obrador's followers will "disturb" as much as they think they can get away with.

I get really, really tired of the left sometimes. Make that all the time.

Thanks StJ for your hard work.

This is more important than many NorteAmericanos know.

[La Enchiladita]

Thank you SOOO much, for the postings (which I still need to catch up on), the pings and the genius keyword plan!

[RightWingNilla]

The keyword is "STJTRANSLATION"

Excellent. Thanks for all your hard work.

ObraGore wants to start an uprising!
