Drama As Two Female Presidential Candidates Clash In Public
Two presidential candidates in Mexico engaged in a heated clash on Sunday.
The incident occurred during a debate as they debated on issues of corruption, gender violence, and healthcare.
During the debate, frontrunner Claudia Sheinbaum of the ruling left-wing party and her main rival Xochitl Galvez accused each other of dishonesty.
Businesswoman Galvez criticized Sheinbaum, describing her as “cold and heartless,” alleging a lack of compassion for child cancer patients and earthquake victims.
Galvez also criticized Sheinbaum’s approach to violent crime, stating, “Claudia Sheinbaum offers you to continue hugging criminals.”
In response, Sheinbaum, a former Mexico City Mayor, emphasized her commitment to becoming “the first woman president of Mexico.”
She presented the choice as between “returning to the corruption of the past” or “advancing with the transformation” initiated by President Lopez Obrador.
Lopez Obrador, the outgoing left-wing populist, enjoys an approval rating of nearly 70 per cent but is constitutionally required to leave office after one term.
