eyes on Tabasco

The big question in Mexican politics today is how much AMLO's late summer antics hurt the long term prospects of his Democratic Revolution Party (PRD). All eyes are now on his home state of Tabasco, on the Gulf. On October 15 there will be an election for governor. Although Lopez Obrador won the state on July 2 with 57% of the vote, the PRD gubernatorial candidate is trailing in the polls, down by 9%.
