Aside from the presidential race, Sunday’s elections will also determine who governs for the next six years in six states and the Federal District (DF) of Mexico City.
After 18 years in power, the National Action Party (PAN) risks losing control of Jalisco to the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) represented by Aristoteles Sandoval or the independent Citizen’s Movement led by Enrique Alfaro. Gubernatorial elections are also taking place in Chiapas, Guanajuato, Morelos, Tabasco and Yucatan.
