The men behind Marcelo

Another background article from Milenio on the key persons or "G-10" behind Marcelo Ebrard's presidential campaign.

Key persons: Manuel Camacho Solís, his "mentor" for more than one decade; René Cervera, a childhood friend and head of the recently formed Fundación Equipo Equidad y Progreso "civic organization" promoting and organizing his bid; Armando Ríos Piter, parliamentary coordinator for PRD; José Ángel Ávila, Government Secretary (2nd in command) of Mexico City.

The men behind Josefina

Milenio has a background article on the "men behind Josefina" Vázquez Mota, and they are indeed mostly men, as I scan the list.

Key allies: Diódoro Carrasco, Ernesto Ruffo Appel,  Francisco Ramírez Acuña - all former governors of Oaxaca, Baja California, and Jalisco respectively (Carrasco for PRI, though).
