The PAN, PRI and PRD are the major political parties in our country, all are preparing for national elections to be held in July 2009 during the time since the 2006 elections there have been elections in states where we see the preparation of each of them.

PAN. - We see a party that won first place in 2000, hence decreased their votes for the disappointment of many Mexicans to have believed in a real change to elect Vicente Fox in 2000, shows the perception of the public not to conform with those 6 years of Fox's government. For 2006 grew the vote getting slightly ahead of nearly 5 percentage points to give to most federal deputies but not an absolute majority since they are almost even the 3 matches, although there was a big difference in Federal Deputies to elect President of the Republic that was to almost half a point between Felipe Calderon and Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. And then there were elections in several states, beginning with Tabasco to Guerrero where they have obtained a very low vote.

PRI. - The Institutional Revolutionary Party exemplifies maturity, that when you fall, you have to get up again and with more encouragement. In this game served as the experience defeat of July 2, 2000, the alternation of presidential power. For 2003 won most votes in the House of Representatives, but in 2006 became the third political force of the nation, but this did not decline retook forces have restructured and no longer stay in the past until this time has won most elections leaving more than 15-point gap to second place.

PRD. - The Democratic Revolution Party since 2000 has had a low public participation, but by 2006 it increased sympathy for their candidate for president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who were about to govern Mexico, but lost by one vote or win elections. The PRD gained a very high vote for Federal Deputies but note the difference between their supporters to vote because there were more than 4 points below the PAN but for President of the Republic was only half a point. From that date until October 2008 has decreased the vote in local elections in several states, has become the third and even fourth political force in the country.

Hopefully everyone to step up toward the 2009 but play fair, you have a good democracy in our country. That the participation of the young men a new vision for our country.
