So, like 20 Mexican political candidates were killed just this year, right?

Nope, I just checked: 37 Mexican political candidates were killed this year.

I was going to ask the likelihood of her not being assassinated in the coming weeks, but it looks like the presidents themselves aren’t assassinated as often as candidates. I guess I just wanted to bring attention to the fact that 37 political candidates have been assassinated just this year.

It’s mostly lower level candidates that get killed, really (mayors, etc). And geez, I remembered hearing 30. It just keeps climbing

I mean, a dozen political candidates of any level being murdered in one year is a lot, and they tripled that shit.

Yeah, but a presidential candidate will have security. A small town mayor would not.
