Mexico candidate vows vote fight |
2006-07-06 |
Mexico's centre-left presidential candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has said he will challenge the outcome of Sunday's presidential election. He spoke as the almost complete results gave a razor-thin victory to his conservative rival, Felipe Calderon. Mr Lopez Obrador said he would appeal to the courts, and urged his supporters to rally in Mexico City's main square. The results came after electoral officials worked around the clock to verify ballots from the 2 July poll. |
