Mexico's presidential election takes historic turn after both major parties select female candidates
Fox News
Voters in Mexico's presidential election will get to choose between two female candidates for the very first time in its history after the nominees were finalized Wednesday.
President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s Morena party nominated Sheinbaum Wednesday night after she defeated five other candidates in the same party – all men.
Sheinbaum and Gálvez have insisted that Mexico is ready to be led by a woman, but a potential victory will not come easy, according to some experts as Mexico’s culture remains male-centric. Mexico has never had a woman president, though there have been several female candidates in the past.
