Tweet Share on Facebook July 3, 2006 CommentIt's Sunday evening in Mexico City, and I am watching the election returns from my hotel room at the Four Seasons, across the Paseo de la Reforma from the Marquis Reforma, where López Obrador is spending the election evening. I am also checking the website of IFE, the nonpartisan electoral commission that by and large seems to have been doing an excellent job.
