The first voter survey by pollster Consulta Mitofsky since the debate showed support for Pena Nieto of the opposition Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, at 38.5 percent, up 0.5 percentage point from a previous poll published on May 1.
That gave him a lead of 17.5 points over Josefina Vazquez Mota of President Felipe Calderon's National Action Party, or PAN. She fell 1 point to 21 percent, her lowest level of support since the presidential campaign began at the end of March.
Two points...
