Tens of thousands of people filled Mexico City's vast main plaza Sunday to protest President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's electoral law changes they say threaten democracy and could mark a return to the past.

The plaza is normally thought to hold nearly 100,000 people, but many protesters who couldn't fit in the square spilled onto nearby streets.
