MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's ruling party and its allies are favored to defend their majority in the lower house of Congress in mid-term elections on June 6, opinion polls showed Wednesday, with one pointing to a possibly close result.
The main scenario of the May 22-28 face-to-face survey of 1,000 voters by polling firm Parametria saw Lopez Obrador's National Regeneration Movement (MORENA) winning 239 seats in the 500-seat lower house, down from the 253 it currently holds.
