Claudia Sheinbaum was elected Mexico’s first woman president by a landslide Sunday, preliminary official results showed, making history in a country plagued by rampant criminal and gender-based violence.

In her first remarks after being confirmed as the winner, Sheinbaum vowed that she would not let Mexico down,

“I won’t fail you,” she said.

The 61-year-old former Mexico City mayor, a scientist by training, won around 58-60 percent of votes, the National Electoral Institute announced after a quick count.

That was more than 30 percentage points ahead of her main opposition rival Xochitl Galvez, and some 50 percentage points ahead of the only man running, long-shot centrist Jorge Alvarez Maynez.

Voters had flocked to polling stations across the Latin American nation, despite sporadic violence in areas terrorized by ultra-violent drug cartels.

Thousands of troops were deployed to protect voters, following a particularly bloody electoral process that has seen more than two dozen aspiring local politicians murdered.

Earlier, Sheinbaum hailed what she called a “historic” election day.

After casting her ballot, the presidential front-runner revealed she had not voted for herself but for a 93-year-old veteran leftist, Ifigenia Martinez, in recognition of her struggle.

“Long live democracy!” Sheinbaum declared.

We have a long way to go.... Since independence, only men have been in power both as governors and presidents... Yet, unfortunately the country isn't going anywhere...
Let's try woman as President or Senate president or at least, State governor!!!!

Righteousness2:
Claudia Sheinbaum has been elected as Mexico’s next President.

The pro Hamas mob wanted to burn the ISRAELI embassy in Mexico City and got a Jew as their president!

Yea, she might be a puppet of the former president and probably a communist as well, but again - antisemites hate Jews just because they’re Jews.

Gerrout.

Nothing would be given to any woman.

If she cannot work for it like all the other men, she's not qualified to be President.

She go soon resign, when the cabals of that country begin stress her life. Na then she go know say beyond the glamour of the office, cabals dey wey go wan have their way every time and turn you to their puppet. For the first time, she go realize say the cabals strong pass her, even as she be President.

That one is beyond redemption. He should apply to be the housemaid of an Isreali family, so he can worship them morning, afternoon and night.

God is putting Jews in power to make sure that the religion of peace does not wipe out Israel

While God loves Israel

The god of the religion of peace Hates Israel.

Showing that god of the religion of peace is not the God of the prophets & hence NOT God.
