Mexico's president on Thursday vigorously backed his party's selection of former Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum as its candidate to succeed him in 2024, dismissing the objections of her main rival that the contest was unfair.
The ruling National Regeneration Movement declared Sheinbaum the winning candidate a few hours after her closest competitor, ex-foreign minister Marcelo Ebrard, said the primary process had been marred by irregularities.
Ebrard on Wednesday said he would decide his next move on Monday and left open the possibility of joining forces with the center-left Citizens' Movement , the only significant opposition party yet to back a candidate for the June 2 presidential election.
