The Mexican state of Michoacan is at the centre of a turf war between a powerful drug cartel and self-ascribed defence groups.
The state - like other parts of the country - will vote in local elections next month.
And it has been a violent run-up. At least 80 candidates have been killed.
Al Jazeera's John Holman looks at how the government seems to have left people to fend for themselves.
