In Mexico's Elections, Women Are Running In Unprecedented Numbers
Elections are Sunday, and more than 3,000 women are running for office. "We women will continue to work three times as hard as men," says one candidate.
Along with picking a new president in this Sunday's election, Mexicans will also replace every member of Congress and will elect thousands of state representatives and hundreds of new mayors. In that array of candidates are more than 3,000 women, who are vying for elective office in unprecedented numbers. Some Mexicans are calling 2018 "el año de la mujer," the year of the woman.
