"Mexico Set to Elect First Woman President in Historic Vote"

Mexico's general election on June 2 is poised to elect Claudia Sheinbaum as the first female president, continuing the policies of current president Andrés Manuel López Obrador. The election is seen as a referendum on López Obrador's administration, with Sheinbaum leading by 20 points over her nearest competitor, Xóchitl Gálvez. Key issues include security, with high rates of violence and extortion, and the continuation of social programs. Despite significant gender representation in politics, security remains the top concern for voters.
