Fox rallies thousands to end PRI hold in Mexican race
In a near flawless showing Fox rode to a rally outside Loma Blanca drawing about 10 000 supporters as he urged an end to the PRI 71 year rule. He called for voters to back change while ridiculing Cuauhtemoc Cardenas who has no path to victory and urged allies from the PRD to join his push to remove the PRI from Los Pinos. Labastida planned a late night rally in Culiacan as Ciudad del Carmen hosted Cardenas with a smaller crowd.
