After hearing from a friend in Mexico, I'm not entirely sure whom to root for anymore in the Mexican presidential election, but I do know that, now that the recount is underway, it's close. With 85% of the votes counted, the liberal Obrador was actually ahead, and buy a full percentage point. Now with 95% 97% in, the lead is down to 0.51% 0.19%. The results from the original tally on Sunday night showed the conservative Calderon ahead by a point or 2.
