Claudia Sheinbaum named Mexico ruling party’s 2024 presidential candidate

Mexico’s governing party has named former Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum as its candidate for the 2024 presidential elections, putting her in pole position to become the country’s first woman leader.
Mexico will go to the polls on June 2 to elect a successor to popular incumbent Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), who is barred by the constitution from serving a second six-year term.
Sheinbaum, 61, was chosen on Wednesday following a series of surveys of members of the governing Morena party.
The party’s national council president, Alfonso Durazo, said Sheinbaum beat former Foreign Affairs Secretary Marcelo Ebrard, her closest rival, by double figures in five party surveys.

Al Jazeera’s Manuel Rapalo reports from Mexico City.

Claudia Sheinbaum, the best option to continue the Fourth Transformation in Mexico. She's an honest and prepared woman, she's been part of MORENA political party since its beginnings. Her speech and philosophy have evolved for good. 🎉❤🇲🇽

I don't follow Mexican politics, who is Claudia B.P who else is running with her in the race, and is her party the left or right? Is Moreno a left party?

Even the survey company that the second place hired showed results that the second place was in fact a second place 😂

[raoulbasurto]

Choose unbiased analysts for these kind of stories please. It's clear Paulina Creuheras is on the conservative party's side.
