Calderon Wins...

...for the moment. CNN's calling it for Calderon, with 99.59% of votes counted, noting that even if all the remaining votes went for Obrador, he still wouldn't win. Final margin: 35.83%-35.36%. Wow.

Unfortunately, Obrador has declared that he "cannot accept these results" and so will challenge them in court. As I noted earlier, we could be in suspense for two months before a winner is finally and formally declared.
