  Mexican general election, 2006 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is likely to contain information of a speculative nature and the content about candidates may change dramatically as the election approaches and more information becomes available.
A general election is to be held in Mexico on Sunday, 2 July 2006.
It is not yet known whether the three smaller parties (the Labour Party (PT), the Green Ecological Party of Mexico (PVEM) and Convergencia that enjoy congressional representation) and the two new parties, New Alliance and the Social Democratic and Farmer Alternative will ally themselves with the big three or put forward their own candidates.

In general, women refugees had limited or no legal recourse for sexual and domestic violence, partly as a result of their unfamiliarity with and wariness of local police and judicial authorities and partly because of the lack of proactive, systematic, and sensitive responses by the relevant international and local authorities.
Mexican officials avoided the issues under consideration, disseminated misinformation, and denied their labor law obligations.
In one such episode, the Mexican government at long last admitted that pre-hire pregnancy testing violated its labor law, but then undermined the significance of its admission by justifying pregnancy testing as long as it was intended to protect the woman's reproductive health or the health of her fetus.

 UNICEF - At a glance: Mexico - Real lives - Mexican children take to the polls
On Sunday 6 July, almost 3.8 million Mexican children and adolescents went to the polls to express their opinions on issues that concern them, in the National Survey of Children and Adolescents, an exercise in child participation organized by the Federal Electoral Institute of Mexico with support from UNICEF.
The issues arose out of the previous National Survey of Children and Adolescents, held alongside the 2000 general election, which highlighted the main concerns of children in the three age groups.
While the participation of adults in the national elections for Congress decreased by 32 per cent this year compared with 2000, the participation of children in 2003 remained almost the same.

 Mexican Election
In March, the Mexican bishops issued "From the Encounter with Jesus Christ to Solidarity with All," a pastoral letter that was the most comprehensive document on social and political issues that the Mexican Church had issued in three decades.
This happened a month before the election, amid accusations that the PRI was making political support a condition of assistance to flood victims in Chalco, a municipality famous as the symbol of the social policy of former president Carlos Salinas de Gortari.
The religious dimension of the Mexican election did not go unnoticed by the U.S. news media, although they tended to overlook the events that ignited the debate on the Church’s role in politics, including Fox’s Decalogue.

Election 2004 will go down in campaign memoirs as the first presidential election in which Americans chose the media they would watch/read/listen to on the basis of their own ideological predispositions.

 Amazon.com: Where the Right Went Wrong: How Neoconservatives Subverted the Reagan Revolution and Hijacked the Bush ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
The problem, in Buchanan's eyes, is the rejection of traditional Reagan-era conservatism by an administration under the sway of the so-called "neoconservatives," who favor a pre-emptive military strategy and big government and don't mind running up dangerously huge budget deficits to support it.
Buchanan is truly a throwback to the old ways of the Grand Old Party: in addition to supporting non-interventionism (in his case isolationism is probably not too strong a word) he is socially conservative and a big government protectionist to boot.
Hence his otherwise wonderful discussion of a truly Jeffersonian and libertarian foreign policy is marred by a tirade against Mexicans and a simplistic longing for a return to the Anglo-dominated American life of the 1950s.
