Mexico polls show Sheinbaum favorite but turnout wild card
Pollsters say Claudia Sheinbaum leads Mexico's presidential race by 11 to 22 points over Xochitl Galvez in most surveys though turnout could tilt results. Some see Galvez supporters more motivated, while others doubt voter engagement and access due to security, crime, and urban access issues. Experts warn final results depend on who shows up and on regional turnout patterns.
