¡They are not going to get rid of us with an earthquake!

An earthquake of 6.0 magnitude that rattled Mexico City on Friday morning ("causing skyscrapers to sway and frightening residents") did not deter the protesters, many of whom have camped out in the vast Zocalo square in a giant sit-in.
'They are not going to get rid of us with an earthquake. The ones who are suffering a political quake are the PAN, the government and Felipe Calderon,' Lopez Obrador's campaign manager Jesus Ortega said."

New Mexican Meme: Mexicans are Resolute, When Principal is Involved.
I mean, come on! Six point OH. We're not talking about people who apply for a permit to protest in a Can't Hear Ya Don't Care Zone. We're talking about people walking miles and miles and setting up camp for days and days and days. And then, riding out an earthquake.
Meanwhile, the count goes on.
Among the ballot snafus reported by PRD recount watchers Thursday was a seemingly bizarre incident in the state of Chihuahua in which all the ballots from one polling station had disappeared.
According to PRD deputies Pablo Gómez and Inti Muñoz, the station had reported 182 votes for Calderón and 77 for López Obrador, but when officials opened the packet, it was empty.
