Enrique Pena Nieto: Percentage Points

Institutional Revolutionary Party Dept: Pena Nieto won Sunday's election with about 38% of the vote, about 6 percentage points ahead of his nearest rival, returning the Institutional Revolutionary Party to power after 12 years in opposition, according to Vancouver Sun. That would leave Pena Nieto reliant on other parties to back his plans to reinvigorate Latin America's No. 2 economy and mexican President-elect Enrique Pena Nieto pledged on Monday to focus on energy, labor and tax reforms and said he hopes to strike deals with opponents to help shepherd changes through Congress before he takes office in December. But the victory margin was smaller than expected and results suggested the PRI and its Green allies would struggle to win a majority, officials at the electoral authorities told Reuters.
