López Obrador claims he will not concede until every vote is recounted.

Enrique Peña Nieto, the assumed winner of the election, claims the election was completely fair. Peña Nieto, of the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI or Institutional Revolutionary Party), took the national election with 38.4% compared to López Obrador at 31.4%.

Peña Nieto won the Baja California vote by a relatively small margin. The PRI candidate took 36.5%, while the PRD candidate took 31.39% of the states vote.

Baja California has traditional been a heavy Partido Acción Nacional (PAN or the National Action Party) favorite. The state only voted the PAN candidate, Josefina Vázquez Mota, at 27.44% of the tally.
