Mexico's ruling party loses ground in midterm election

The political party that ruled Mexico for 71 years with an iron fist made a significant comeback in midterm elections Sunday.

When the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) lost the presidency for the first time in 2000, a new era of democracy was hailed in Mexico. But it appears that a sharp economic downturn and a deadly drug war has given the venerable party a boost.

According to preliminary results, the PRI was leading the race by 8 percentage points, despite a generally high approval rating for Mexican President Felipe Calderon, of the conservative National Action Party (PAN). The PRI also held leads in four of six governors races.
