For several reasons, the election campaign in Mexico to decide who will be the next president, is becoming ever more exciting.
Yesterday, Reuters news agency showed their new survey to the world, where Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador stood at second place in the preference of the Mexican voters, tied with Josefina Vazquez Mota. Despite the achievement, experts pointed out that in the remaining weeks of the campaign, it is unlikely that Peña Nieto will leave first place.
BGC was the pollster responsible for the poll held after the first official debate last Sunday May 6. Beside the attacks between the candidates, and the huge attention that the event escort received, the important things were the proposals, which helped Gabriel Quadri, the New Alliance Party candidate, to increase his followers.
The four candidates, Enrique Peña Nieto, Josefina Vazquez Mota, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador and Gabriel Quadri, continued their promotion in the country. They visited schools and public squares all over Mexico.
The highlighted facts such as the presentation of Josefina Vazquez Mota on the TV show "Tercer Grado", where several Mexican journalists questioned her proposals, some labeled the show as a series of attacks to Josefina, which forced her to make a slight change in her speech, which became a little more aggressive.

Shortly before his visit, a video was released where the PANAL party candidate was seeing aboard a brand new armored car, but a couple of blocks from the event where he was scheduled, he changed vehicles right before arriving to the presentation.
Enrique Peña Nieto has been one of the most affected by the public opinion. At the end of last week, students from the Iberoamericana University rejected his presence at the University, and through a strong protest, the candidate was forced to leave the premises.
The number of people suggesting that his first place in the polls is not real is increasing, and that his candidacy and the possible triumph in the upcoming elections are an imposition of mass media and other circles of power in the country.
In response, an "Anti-Peña Nieto March" was call out; after the other parties implied they had nothing to do with the event, some sources reported that the PAN party was the mastermind, and the ones that originally planned to assist to the event, reconsidered the idea to transform it into a march for an informed vote.
Away from the show that each candidate perform, voters have also been given the task of thoroughly analyzing the proposals of each of them, consulting the proposals, surveys, studies by specialists, among others.
Today, the informative site 'Animal Politico' (Political Animal), shared the results of "Arena Electoral" (Electoral Arena), where development experts spoke not about the candidate and his speech, but the viability of each proposal, the result was as follows:
