Mexican presidential frontrunner spells tension for U.S.-Mexico ties [View all]
Andres Martinez 1 hour ago
Mexico elects its next president on July 1, and if present polls hold, the populist Andrés Manuel López Obrador — the former leftist mayor of Mexico City and twice-defeated presidential candidate known as “AMLO” — will prevail.
