Mexico: Voters Skeptical Ahead of June 7 Midterm Elections

  • 9 years ago
With the country is mired in violence and corruption scandals, Mexican voters increasingly distrust the country's political system and parties and are skeptical in relation to the upcoming June 7 mid-term elections. Such sentiment is expected to translate into high abstention rates. To channel popular discontent, some social activists are involved in a campaign to remove President Enrique Peña Nieto from office and others are calling for a boycott of the upcoming elections.
