Home » Mexico Pledges Security for July 1 Elections
Mexican officials have pledged expanded security for the country’s July 1 presidential and congressional elections and said they’ll consider providing protection for a broad range of candidates amid growing interference by criminal gangs in politics.
According to an AP report, the Mexican government normally provides security for presidential candidates, but Assistant Interior Secretary Obdulio Avila said that his agency will “evaluate the appropriateness of security for other candidates.’’
