MEXICO CITY, July 2 (Reuters) - Mexico's presidential front-runner Enrique Pena Nieto has an irreversible lead after Sunday's vote, an election authority official said, citing an official quick count.
Pena Nieto, of the once long-dominant opposition Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), had between 37.9 and 38.55 percent of the vote, ahead of second-placed leftist challenger Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who had between 30.9 and 31.86 percent of the vote, the quick count showed.
