Campaigning has drawn to a close in Mexico ahead of the general elections on June 2nd. People will cast their ballots for a new president and choose local lawmakers, mayors and council members. It will be the biggest ever election in Mexico's history - ending a campaign that has been its most violent.
The last-minute campaigning was once again accompanied by violence. On Thursday, gunmen shot dead a mayoral candidate in the southern state of Guerrero. Alfredo Cabrera was at a campaign rally when he was approached and shot several times at point-blank range. His death brought the number of politicians who have been murdered during their campaigns to well over 20.
