Peña Nieto Victorious in Mexican Presidental Elections
July 02, 2012
Preliminary results show voters in Mexico have chosen to bring the country's once dominant political party back into power by electing Enrique Pena Nieto as their next president.
Election officials said late Sunday that Pena Nieto had 38 percent of the vote to beat former Mexico City mayor Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who had 31 percent.
Lopez Obrador said he was not ready to concede.
"We have to represent them as they deserve to be represented, the citizens that have confided in us," said Obrador. "We will not, in any way, act in an irresponsible way, we will have all of the information. And when it is the right time, we will inform the people of Mexico about the result of this election."
