After 71 years of one-party rule by the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), Vicente Fox makes history by being elected as the President of Mexico. He is the candidate of the right-wing National Action Party (PAN) and his victory marks a significant shift in Mexican politics. This event represents a turning point in the country's history as it symbolizes the end of PRI's dominance in Mexican politics and the beginning of a new era with more diverse political representation.
