My not so great Spanish renders this as:

"It is very important to resist the declarations of Obrador (Amlo) 12 days before the election, shortly before they finalize the prep., and a day after the district calculations.

Watch the (Spanish language) video in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbYsNBxER8E

Now you complete! (Mexican educational slang?)"

The video link just has some Mexican media saying that Obreador, the liberal, has lost all credibility.

Blame this election also on the GOP.

As Cragg Hines writes, this election was affected by Mexican imports of American attack ads and GOP strategists. Until PAN started in the spring to hammer Lopez Obrador, the former mayor of Mexico City, with atrocious American style attack ads, claiming that he was dangerous for Mexico, he had a solid lead.
