News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Mexican Court to Decide Election Outcome

MEXICO CITY (AP) -- Mexico's national electoral court announced Monday it will convene on Tuesday to announce its decision over the disputed July 2 presidential elections.

The Federal Electoral Tribunal could declare a president-elect or annul the vote during its session.

Lopez Obrador claims fraud and dirty tricks robbed him of the presidency, has said he will never recognize a victory by Calderon and will declare himself the alternative president.

He has called supporters to a mass meeting in Mexico City's central plaza to plot strategy on Sept. 16 - the same day and place Mexico's army traditionally stages an annual Independence Day parade.

The former Mexico City mayor, who portrays himself as the savior of the poor, also plans to hold a "democratic convention" that day in which he will declare his parallel government.
