National Action Party (PAN) presidential candidate Josefina Vázquez Mota

MEXICO CITY – National Action Party (PAN) presidential candidate Josefina Vázquez Mota denied that her campaign was in decline, despite recent opinion polls indicating that she is in third place.

On Thursday Vázquez Mota said that if she wins the presidency she will imprison Joaquín Guzmán Loera, former Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) officials, and “many others.”

During an interview on Thursday with the Network of Accountability and Oversight, Vázquez Mota said that there is still enough time before the election to beat frontrunner Enrique Peña Nieto. She stated that she is certain that her adversary will “be deflated” at the polls on July 1.

Vázquez Mota said that she is not going to argue poll results, but said that the only poll that matters is the one on election day. She said, “We are less than 10 points behind the frontrunner. There is plenty of time to beat him and win the election. Enrique Peña Nieto thought that the election was a done deal, but today he knows that it’s not over yet. Now he’s the one that is on the downturn.”

Regarding the Progressive Movement candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador, Vázquez Mota said that he needs to explain recent campaign donations. She said, “It’s clear to everyone that not only did he break the law, but that now his rhetoric of honesty is completely invalid.”

The PAN presidential candidate said, “I have no doubt in my mind that the next administration is going to imprison el Chapo, Tomás Yarrington, former treasurer Humberto Moreira, and many others who support the current PRI presidential candidate. All of them have been accused of money laundering and have obvious ties to organized crime.”

Vázquez Mota said, “Together we will ensure ... full disclosure, transparency and accountability … As president, my administration will end corruption, and the pilfering of public funds.”
