Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, May 29. In her closing campaign in Veracruz, the presidential candidate of the Fuerza y Corazón por México coalition (PAN, PRI and PRD), Xóchitl Gálvez, stated that she has her opponent, the Morena candidate and her allies, Claudia Sheinbaum, “ on the ropes ” and “ within striking distance .”
In Coatzacoalcos, where he accompanied José Yunes, the opposition candidate for governor of Veracruz, Gálvez Ruiz led an event before thousands of attendees as temperatures rose to nearly 40 degrees. The event was held under a tent to provide protection from the sun, but the temperature did not decrease.
Referring to Rocío Nahle, Morena's candidate for governor, he noted that "that woman turned out to be a crook , and look, they complained about (Javier) Duarte (former governor of Veracruz), this one turned out to be more of a thief, but more so."
At the end of his message, he called on his supporters to usher in "this new era of prosperity for all. Believe me, victory is within striking distance; we already have it. We already have Sheinbaum on the ropes ; she thought this was just a formality. No, gentlemen, it's just a formality in Venezuela, it's just a formality in Cuba, it's just a formality in Russia. Here we have democracy, thank God. Whether you like it or not, your vote will count."
At night, moments before the Mexican soccer final began, he stated in Cuernavaca that he couldn't predict the outcome of the game, but "what I can assure you is that in eight days , I will win , there's no doubt about that."
Along with the opposition candidate for governor of Morelos, Lucy Meza, the Hidalgo native had to deliver a brief address in response to the threat of rain, which moments later turned into a downpour.
