MEXICO: Calderon's PAN Party Faces Gale Force Headwinds In Yucatan.
LATIMES/ Recent polls predict a near-sweep in the Yucatan and elsewhere for the PRI, President Calderon's opposition, as voters in about half the states pick state and local officeholders. PAN leaders said they were even having trouble recruiting candidates in Tamaulipas, a PRI stronghold, because of violence. In the Yucatan, voters choose 106 mayors and 25 state legislators,where the prize is the mayor's seat in Merida, the capital. If PAN loses Merida, it will be a serious blow," said pollster Jorge Buendia.
