Former Mexican president Lazaro Cardenas, 68, looms as a potential catalyst for a new coalition of leftist groups forming the People’s Electoral Front to challenge the PRI in next year’s vote. He has kept his stance ambiguous while leftist leaders vie for support and party rivals doubt the front’s viability.
