100% Mexican men and women, adults, EZLN support bases, who listened to
reports from the zapatista leadership. There was also an analysis of the
national situation and of the proposal for a new step in the struggle.

Third - After analyzing and discussing the advantages and disadvantages,
the dangers and the risks, everyone expressed themselves, through
individual, free votes, concerning the proposal.

Fourth - The results were that more than 98% approved the new step, and
less than 2% decided not to support the proposal.
