The title to tomorrow's front page San Antonio Express News:

Two candidates claim Mexico's presidency

Shades of 2000 all over again. I'm going to bed. See you all tomorrow.

More as it develops. Old updates after the jump.

And now Andres Manuel Loprez Obrador has also just declared himself the winner. From his supporters:

"They are going to rob our election," said lawyer Varenca Gorialba, 28, as she cried, shook and moaned at the base of a gigantic pole holding a Mexican flag.

The candidate known as AMLO declared victory, as did his chief rival, Felipe Calderon, of the conservative National Action Party, shortly after the federal government announced the vote was too close to call and that a winner might not be announced until Wednesday

This is real interesting now. More from Reuters.

Exit polling shows race is too close to call

Party officials in slum accuse each other of vote-buying

Calderon declares himself the winner.

Citing "quick counts" and four exit polls, Calderón said it was just a matter of time until he was declared the next president elect of Mexico.

This is getting interesting. Does Mexico have Faux News?

The SAEN Mexico blog is reporting the following:

With just less than 22 percent of the vote counted, Felipe Calderón of the National Action Party has 38.81 percent of the vote, to Andrés Manuel López Obrador's 35.55 percent.

With each new count, Calderón's lead shrinks.

In terms of total votes, 285,296 tallies separate the two candidates.

Still no exit polls. The electoral institute will make an announcement in about 22 minutes.
