Enthusiastic Reception in Monterrey
Amidst shouts and cheers, supporters of Claudia Sheinbaum chanted phrases of support like “It is an honor to be with Claudia today” and “President, President!”
The excitement and enthusiasm of the crowd required Sheinbaum’s security team to step in to help her move through the throng.
Despite the commotion, Sheinbaum appeared grateful and approachable, blowing kisses and waving to the people who had come to see her.
