Soberanía podcast co-hosts José Luis Granados Ceja and Kurt Hackbarth evaluate the first ten days of Mexico’s election campaign, looking at Xóchitl Gálvez’s incoherent campaign strategy, trying to be all things to all people. In the second half of the episode, Kurt and José Luis analyze calls by prominent opposition figures for Gálvez to “go negative” against Claudia Sheinbaum and efforts by pundits to convince the public that the opposition will win in Mexico City despite being 20 points behind. Plus our regular segment looking at terrible English-language coverage of the country by the mainstream media.
