Mexico City Mayor Marcelo Ebrard continues his active campaigning for the left´s coalition candidate in Guerrero, Ángel Aguirre River, who in campaign appearances with Ebrard promises to implement the same social programs Ebrard, and before him Andrés Manuel López Obrador, has carried out with much success in Mexico City. Amidst worrying reports that the electoral campaign is getting ever more tense and that violence has broken out between supporters of Aguirre and of PRI´s candidate Manuel Añorve Baños, Ebrard directly accused PRI of trying to buy the vote in old fashion with handouts of cement and building materials.
Governor of Mexico State, Enrique Peña Nieto, will also appear soon in state capital Chilpancingo, Añorve Baños announced. The state election in Guerrero, while also highly significant of itself, will thus clearly be a prelude to 2012: Aguirre vs. Añorve also means Ebrard vs. Peña Nieto.

Aguachile is tying the knot in Mexico
Aguachile has fled the cold winds of the north for the warm embrace of central Mexico, and not just for research this time: I will get married in a few days, and as I am busy running around putting the final touches on everything from coordinating the mariachis to maintaining bountiful supplies of tequila, blogging will likely be sporadic for some time. I hope you will all have a wonderful December!
