For the first time ever, the two leading candidates for president are women.
A group of American tourists visits the American-built border wall separating San Diego from Tijuana in Playas de Tijuana, Aug. 21, 2023.“We are going to have a woman in the Mexican presidency,” said Rafael Fernandez de Castro, director of the Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies at UC San Diego. “This is going to be the first woman governing in North America. Not Canada, not the U.S. But Mexico first.
“The story she tells is that she was very poor when she was little and began selling stuff in the streets until she went to Mexico City and began her engineering career,” Sandoval said.“Among the business community, the discussion is about either centralized government or decentralized government, more structure or more flexibility,” said Flavio Olivieri, director of the Center of Excellence in Competitiveness and Entrepreneurship at CETYS University.
“I think both candidates have a very clear understanding that the economic wellbeing of this region is strictly tied to the cross-border economy,” Olivieri said. “Our relationship to the United States is fundamental.” “If Xochitl wins the presidency, you’ll expect more neoliberal policies and a very open Mexico,” said Fernandez de Castro.
“That’s a good idea, you need to make it easier for employers to move into the formal market,” Sandoval said.
