Voter participation was highest in Aguascalientes, where roughly 67% of registered voters went to the polls. In contrast, only 30% of voters in Oaxaca and 52% in Veracruz cast ballots. PAN candidate wins easily in Aguascalientes In Aguascalientes, PAN candidate Felipe Gonzalez Gonzalez received 53% of the vote, compared with 36% for Hector Hugo Olivares Ventura of the PRI and 7% for Alfonso Bernal Sahagun of the center-left Partido de la Revolucion Democratica (PRD). The margin of victory for the PAN candidate was a surprise, since most public-opinion polls before the election projected a tight race between Gonzalez and Olivares.

Dental Fluorosis in Children from Aguascalientes, Mexico: a Persistent Public Health Problem
water Article Dental Fluorosis in Children from Aguascalientes, Mexico: A Persistent Public Health Problem Osiel González Dávila 1,2 1 Program for Longitudinal Studies, Experiments and Surveys, Center for Research and Teaching in Economics (CIDE), Sede Región Centro, Aguascalientes 20313, Mexico; [email protected] 2 Mexican National Council of Science and Technology (CONACYT), Mexico City 03940, Mexico Abstract: This paper estimates the prevalence and severity of dental fluorosis among participants in the first wave of The Aguascalientes Longitudinal Study of Child Development (EDNA). The analyti- cal sample includes 1052 children in 100 public elementary schools. Dental fluorosis is determined using the Modified Dean’s Index. There is a 43% general dental fluorosis prevalence, and the esti- mated Community Fluorosis Index is 0.99. Five municipalities report average groundwater fluoride concentrations above the official Mexican guideline value of 1.5 mg/L. In those municipalities, there is a 50% average dental fluorosis prevalence. An ordered logistic regression analysis indicates that obesity in participants increases the likelihood of suffering more severe dental fluorosis symptoms compared with normal-weight participants (OR = 1.62, p < 0.05). Households consuming tap water are more likely to have children suffering more severe dental fluorosis symptoms (OR = 1.63, p < 0.05). Children aged 8 years are more likely to present more severe dental fluorosis symptoms than their peers aged 7 years (OR = 1.37, p < 0.05). Dental fluorosis will persist as a public health problem in Aguascalientes State unless appropriate technologies for fluoride removal from water are installed and operated.

Mexico's Ten Most Iconic Endangered Species
Alejandro Olivera Center for Biological Diversity, April 2018 Executive summary exico is one of the world’s most biologically rich nations, with diverse landscapes that are home to a treasure trove of wildlife, including plant and animal species found nowhere else. Sadly, in Mexico and Maround the world, species are becoming extinct because of human activities at rates never seen before. In this report we highlight the threats facing Mexico’s 10 most iconic endangered species to help illustrate the broader risks confronting the country’s imperiled plants and animals. These 10 species — which in most cases are protected only on paper — were chosen to reflect Mexico’s diversity of wildlife and ecosystems and the wide range of threats to the country’s biodiversity. New awareness of these unique animals and plants is critical to inspiring a nationwide demand to protect these critical components of Mexico’s natural heritage. Although the Mexican government began officially listing and protecting species as extinct, threatened, endangered, and “under special protection” in 1994 — more than 20 years ago — few species have actually recovered, and many critical threats continue unabated. In many cases, officials are failing to enforce crucial laws and regulations that would protect these species. Additionally, the Mexican government has not updated its official list of imperiled species, referred to as NOM059, since 2010, despite new and growing risks from climate change, habitat destruction, the wildlife trade and in some cases direct killing. This failure obscures the true plight of the nation’s endangered wildlife. The following 10 iconic endangered species are not adequately protected by the Mexican government: 1.
