      They were not all runner-ups, you’re falling for misinformation bullshit (and stop upvoting misinformation, people!). The assassinations were not presidential candidates. They were local politicians, running for mayoral or council seats.

      Which is absolutely fucking horrifying in and of itself, don’t get me wrong, but what you’re saying is just not true.

      Yeah, kinda wondering why the cartels want her in office. Maybe she’s less good than she appears.

      Also wondering why anyone would want to lead Mexico given that angering the cartels will get you cartel’d…

      Hmm… so it’s not the electoral system that needs reform… Murcia just needs to murder more candidates?!
