George Craig was the Secretary for Postal Affairs of the United States of Mexico in the Cabinet of Chief of State Benito Hermión. He may have retained the office in the provisional government of Kramer Guard Commandant Martin Cole, though Sobel does not specifically say so.
After Hermión's overthrow in October 1901, Craig was one of fourteen presidential candidates running in the 1902 Mexican elections. He finished second behind Pedro Sanchez, a returning exile who had been the editor of the Mexico City Times and a participant in the plot to oust Hermión. Since Sanchez won only twelve percent of the total vote in the presidential election, Diego Cortez y Catalán ordered a runoff election between Craig, Sanchez, and third-place finisher Anthony Flores. In the runoff election, Craig finished second behind Flores with 6,559,429 votes out of 17,862,372 cast, or 36.7%. He finished first in the states of Jefferson, Arizona, and California, second in Durango and Chiapas, and third in Mexico del Norte.
Craig does not have an entry in Sobel's index.
Sobel's source for George Craig's presidential run is Stanley Tulin's The Kramer Associates: The Cortez Years (London, 1970).
