Final results of Mexico State vote on PRD-PAN alliance

According to Sergio Aguayo, presidente of Propuesta Cívica, co-responsible for arranging this weekend's vote:

* 250, 985 participated
* Of these, 198,217 voted in favor of a PRD-PAn electoral alliance, or close to 79 percent
* 43,008, or 17.2 percent, voted against
* 6,330, or 2.5 percent, voted "I Don't know"
* 3,358, or 1.34 percent, spoiled/invalidated their vote (intentionally or by mistake)

Sure, given Mexico's State population, it may not seem too impressive, but that a quarter of a million bothered to take time to vote in what is not even a party primary, but only a vote on electoral alliances, is still quite noteworthy.
