Description:
Mexicans will head to the polls on July 1 for national and local elections, voting in Senators, Governers and a new President.
More than 3.5 million people will be casting their ballots for the first time. The so-called youth vote for those aged 18 to 29 makes up more than 20% of the electorate.
If voter turnout is high it could have an impact on the election, however, nearly half of voters in that age group are still undecided, according to a recent academic study.
Al Jazeera's Rachel Levin reports on how the youth vote could play a big role in deciding the next President of Mexico.
