双语新闻：初步计票：涅托将赢得墨西哥总统选举 Preliminary Results: Pena Nieto Wins Mexican Presidential Election

02 July, 2012

墨西哥总统选举的初步计票结果显示，革命制度党候选人培尼亚·涅托将成为下届总统。当年长期居于统治地位的革命制度党将重新执政。

墨西哥选举官员星期日晚间说，涅托获得38%的选票，击败了前墨西哥城市长奥夫拉多尔。奥夫拉多尔获得31的选票。

奥夫拉多尔说，他还不准备承认败选。

革命制度党执政71年，直到2000年。批评人士说，革命制度党长期掌权导致腐败、选举舞弊和压制。但是，由于墨西哥在保守的国家行动党政府领导下经济凋敝、法治弛废，革命制度党近来在民众中的支持率增高。

国家行动党候选人莫塔的得票位居第三。

涅托对支持者讲话时说，墨西哥通过投票的方式选择了变革方向。他誓言要对贩毒集团施压。

Preliminary results show voters in Mexico have chosen to bring the country's once dominant political party back into power by electing Enrique Pena Nieto as their next president.

Election officials said late Sunday that Pena Nieto had 38 percent of the vote to beat former Mexico City mayor Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who had 31 percent.

Lopez Obrador said he was not ready to concede.

Pena Nieto's Institutional Revolutionary Party ruled Mexico for 71 years until 2000, when voters elected National Action Party (PAN) candidate Vicente Fox. Outgoing President Felipe Calderon, also from PAN, followed in 2006, but his tenure has been plagued by economic stagnation and rampant drug violence.

Mr. Calderon deployed the military to fight the drug cartels shortly after he took office. More than 50,000 people have been killed in drug violence since then.

Pena Nieto said in an address to his supporters that Mexicans have voted for a change in direction, but he vowed to keep pressure on the cartels.
