Violence and Assassinations Mar Final Days of Mexico's Election Campaign

The final day of campaigning for Mexico's June 2 elections was marred by violence, with attacks on candidates and a high homicide rate. Opposition candidate Xóchitl Gálvez criticized President López Obrador's "hugs not bullets" policy, while leading candidate Claudia Sheinbaum promised to continue his policies. The election, likely to result in Mexico's first female president, is overshadowed by cartel violence, with 27 candidates killed this year.
