Several recent opinion polls have placed leftist candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador of the Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD) above Josefina Vazquez Mota of the ruling National Action Party (PAN) for the first time.
Lopez Obrador now has the support of 24.8 percent of likely voters, while Vazquez Mota has just 23.1 percent, according to a Buendia & Laredo survey from Monday. Another poll conducted last week by GEA/ISA for Milenio newspaper put Lopez Obrador on 19.5 percent, above Vazquez Mota’s 18.8 percent. A BGC poll published Monday in the Excelsior newspaper, however, showed the pair tied in second place, each with 26 percent support of those likely to vote. Enrique Peña Nieto of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) still leads the polls.
