Mexico's 2012 presidential race

Early polling (really early polling) shows the PRI and the governor of the state of Mexico far ahead of rivals for the presidency in 2012.

Thanks to Daniel Wilson at the blog Under the Volcano for pointing this out and translating.

Poll: View towards 2012 is all PRI
A Mitofsky survey looking toward the 2012 presidential race shows the PRI leading voter preferences with 40%, compared to 16% for the PAN and 12% for the PRD.


In answer to who would you like to see as president, Mexico state governor Enrique Peña Nieto was far ahead of all others. When priistas are asked about their preferred candidates, Peña Nieto is followed by Veracruz governor Fidel Herrera and party leader Beatriz Paredes. Panista preferences are for Senator Santiago Creel, congressional leader Vázquez Mota, and Jalisco governor Emilio González. Among perredistas, AMLO tops Mexico City mayor Marcelo Ebrard by 2:1.
