 » I have occasionally written as a New York correspondent for the Rumbo chain of newspapers in Texas. Here are some stories, including coverage of Election Day in Mexico City in July 2, 2006. (In Spanish.)

› AMLO vs. Felipe: Voters' opinions on Election Day reflected how polarized Mexican society was leading up to the vote to name Vicente Fox's successor. I went from the affluent Polanco neighborhood and the hip Condesa section to working-class Colonia Doctores.

› Gang vs. School: Mexican teenagers in New York suffer from the highest high-school dropout rate. I talked to a group of them, who said that many times the choice is stark: stay in school or join a gang.
