Meet Claudia Sheinbaum.

Claudia Sheinbaum, the former mayor of Mexico City, is running for the presidency of Mexico and is set to become the country's first female and first Jewish president. Sheinbaum has a background in activism and politics, with her parents being involved in the 1968 student movement. She has a strong commitment to her country and has a track record of accomplishments as mayor, including reducing crime rates and implementing measures to combat violence against women. Sheinbaum is aligned with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and hopes to continue the progress made under his administration. She faces opposition from Xóchitl Gálvez, who represents a coalition of parties aiming to defeat López Obrador's supposed "authoritarianism." [Extracted from the article]
