Support for Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador slipped to a new low in June as discontent mounted over his management of the economy and security, two years after he won office, an opinion poll showed on Wednesday.
According to the June survey of 820 respondents by Mexican newspaper El Financiero, the leftist leader’s approval rating slipped to a low of 56% from 60% in May.
Instead, Mexico slipped into a moderate recession last year and homicides have risen higher still on Lopez Obrador’s watch. The coronavirus pandemic has hit Mexico hard, and forecasters expect the economy to shrink by 10% or more this year.
