Andrés Manuel López Obrador
Presidente de México
2018-2024
I have been a huge supporter of AMLO this whole time, ever since he lost the presidential elections in 2012. And so, this result makes me beyond happy:
All the other candidates didn't even stand a chance. Still, I felt nervous and anxious during the weekend because the mere thought of Anaya or Meade making it to the presidential chair made me sick. I have had enough, that's all I can say.
We were supposed to start having official results at 11pm, but at around 8:30pm the other candidates started giving their congratulation messages, admitting their failure. Not even in my wildest dreams I'd have thought that'd happen, not even in my craziest moments I'd have believed we'd win with a 53% of the votes.
We have a match against Brazil in just a few minutes, but I think Mexico has already won a lot. Whatever happens, you need to know this: México está de fiesta.
