Poll shockers: AMLO single digits behind Peña Nieto

Two polls appear to demonstrate a dramatic turn in the 2012 presidential race in Mexico:

* According to pollster María de las Heras, Peña Nieto pulls 39 against 31 of AMLO
* According to pollster Covarrubias y Asociados, Peña Nieto pulls 36 to AMLO's 27.

This is truly stunning. With one month left of the race, the outcome is increasingly open.
