Mexico's top electoral tribunal has rejected former President Felipe Calderon's bid to register a new political party, citing insufficient proof on the origin of cash contributions, it said on Thursday.
Calderon, president from 2006 to 2012, and his wife Margarita Zavala, a presidential candidate in the 2018
election, had sought to register
Mexico Libre (Free Mexico) after splitting with the center-right National Action Party (PAN).
The upper chamber of the Federal Electoral Tribunal (TEPJF) ruled by a majority vote to deny the registration.
