The students took the highway for 20 minutes
México. - In Aguascalientes the Normal’s students of the Rural Normal school Justo Sierra Mendez (NRJSM, in Spanish), teachers' school has as students more than 400 girls. Their origins go back to Chiapas. March 11th, 1938 was fired the Regional School of the Soconusco, Chiapas. Deputy J. Isabel Duron, originating of Cañada Blanca, requested that the school was transferred Aguascalientes State. The first years it worked as agricultural elementary school. It acquired the level of rural regional school February 1st, 1941. The rural school settled down in the former farm Jose Morelos. In their majority, the students are peasants' daughters.

The students of the school NRJSM blocked for 20 minutes the 25 state highway that takes us to the municipality of Zacatecas of Loreto, to request to the drivers cooperation of money to buy diesel. This school is located in the Deep narrow canyon of this Zacatecas Capital. June 1, last Friday the Normal’s students “crossed the trucks and they began them to request money to the drivers for the fuel, but they caused nuisances to many because they made people to stop", the municipal delegate's explanation, Jose Luis Torres. To the place several patrol cars of the secretary of municipal public security arrived whose officials asked the demonstrators to retire, for what these opted to lift the blockade and to move to their facility. Detained people were not reported.

The operative Agora of the SNTE to capture 5 million votes
By means of a sophisticated operative electoral denominated Agora -which includes strategies of "intelligence" of communications and it mentions six “high-priority” states for the day of July 1 -, the National Union of Workers of the Education (SNTE, in Spanish), headed by Elba Esther Gordillo, it seeks to capture “5 million of sympathies (votes), for that which they will be contacted more than 6 million 768 thousand 250 people”. Of these, they “will be carried” to the polling-boots 3 millions 434 thousand 125 citizens, with an army of “27 thousand 473 activists". Everything at a cost of “10 millions 85 thousand 183 dollars."

In accordance with the document “digital System of activism alternative mobilization (Agora) of the SNTE", the strategy is not only for the “day D", like it is identified to Sunday of the voting in which president of the Republic will be chosen, but it is in progress already, because according “to the calendar of supplies” on Monday 2 millions 858 thousand 279 dollars will be paid, besides the 2 millions 877 thousand 12 that already it spending the past 3 of June and that in total they add 5 millions 735 thousand 292 pesos for several concepts that it will go the “computer development” until the additional supports to the entities of more importance according to its "competitiveness".
The report was known by the CNTE
The report was given to know for the Democratic National Executive Committee (CEND, in Spanish) of the union, in charge of Artemio Ortiz Hurtado (AOH). The organization that is part of the grouping of dissident teachers warned that that whole strategy is “to operate in favor of the candidate of the PRI, Enrique Peña Nieto, and not of the applicant of New Alliance Party, Gabriel Quadri. The objective of Agora is to build the fraud from before. To have the picture of the movie before it passes the movie", AOH alerted. It wondered to the SNTE their official opinion on Agora and their answer was: "There is not opinion in this respect."

With the logo of the SNTE, the document details the organizational lattice that will be carried out before and during July 1, for that which they are already had located the polls. The strategy includes a “Call center” to call to each one of the 3.4 million people that they will be mobilized to the polling-booths; the unfolding of “27 thousand 473 mobilizers", each one with a cellular telephone to send been by message SMS in “real time” and to state scale, district and union section; a previous survey, June 30 with 2 thousand 500 cases; another exit survey the day of the election, with 12 thousand 500 interviews, and a fast count of the results, “according to records", in 250 points ' keeping watch’ of the country. All that information will be sent to the call “control room", created for the “taking of decisions."

In July of 2006, days after the election, it became public a phone call between Elba Esther Gordillo (EEG), and in that time governor of Tamaulipas, Eugenio Hernandez, in which the teacher revealed the existence of “a net that we prepare in the whole country", as well as of surveys and privileged information “to speak with Felipe (Calderon) and to be sold it". Six years later, this report indicates, in the line denominated ”mobilization“ that one “has programmed the reception of 5 millions of sympathetic", of which 3 millions 434 thousand 125 will be “mobilized” the first of July. The goals noticed for poll, electoral section and district, they were “verified and signed in a commitment letter by the leader of each one of the sections."

Even, it is considered that to obtain the “best results” in the project “it is necessary to endow from economic resources to the 20 thousand mobilizers -although later it is corrected and it speaks of 27 thousand 473 people, whose activities will have a cost of '4 millions 349 thousand 892 dollars' - so that they are responsible for transferring to the polls to the sympathetic ones thinking. This way each one of the "mobilizers" or “electoral raccoons”, like AOH said, it will receive 33.33 dollars and each one of those mobilized or carried will obtain 1 dollar. In the Day "D" will be added credit 6.7 dollars in its cellular one to each "mobilizer". The fraud will make it before. With the census in the hand, people of EEG already visited to the drawn, to those that will be officials, during the day, they already carried, and they already made the change of electoral papers, the candidate of the PRI already won.
