Claudia Sheinbaum has been elected Mexico's first female president in an historic landslide win.
Mexico's official electoral authority said preliminary results showed the 61-year-old former mayor of Mexico City winning 58 to 60 per cent of the vote in Sunday's election.
That gives her a lead of about 30 percentage points over her main rival, businesswoman Xóchitl Gálvez.
Ms Sheinbaum will replace her mentor, outgoing President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, on October 1.
