The Zapatistas planned to hold a national Other Campaign assembly in Mexico City on June 24 and 25, and then return to the jungle in Chiapas to spend the days surrounding the presidential elections at home, away from the polls and the television cameras.
No more.
In response to the brutal repression in Atenco, the government's continued denial of the extent and nature of the violence, and the continued incarceration of 31 people detained arbitrarily in Texcoco and Atenco on May 3 and 4, the EZLN and the Other Campaign, are betting everything on taking to the streets in protest on election day.
The risk is high, they need international support.

A PAN victory with thier pendecho Calderon would send in the riot police or the army in the first five minutes of a win and more than likely kill many Zapatistas. Know what you are asking for idiot. If that is what you are asking for, then shame on you.
