( CNN ) -- In one picture , the political candidate wears a bright blue business suit , standing with her arms crossed beside her campaign pledge to bring `` hope for your family . '' In another , she wears white lace underwear and angel wings . Both images show Giselle Arellano , who was running for a spot on the ballot as a conservative National Action Party candidate representing migrants in the local congress of Mexico 's Zacatecas state . The 33-year-old 's candidacy came under fire earlier this month after some accused her of working as an escort in Las Vegas . Arellano lost a party primary this week , but Tuesday she said that she 's planning to contest the results . She denies that she ever worked as an escort and says the risque images of her , which sparked debate when they started circulating online and in local media reports earlier this month , came from a modeling shoot . Arellano accused political opponents of attacking her and all women in Zacatecas . `` Those who have orchestrated this campaign will not be successful , because these angel wings that are seen in the video , are those that have allowed many women to fly through these kinds of storms and the macho desires of those who keep seeing women as objects , '' she wrote on her website . She said the widely circulated video , which shows her scantily clad and posing with several other women , was promoting a party in Las Vegas that she did not attend . `` I am not ashamed of it . ... I want to make it very clear , that I do not own nor have I ever worked in a brothel , nor have I been an escort , '' she wrote . But the video drew the attention of leaders from the National Action Party , who disavowed her candidacy last week , saying she did not have `` an honest means of living , '' Mexico 's state-run Notimex news agency reported . In campaign videos , Arellano says she competed in beauty pageants , studied marketing , speaks five languages , worked as a translator in immigrant courts in Los Angeles and started two businesses in Las Vegas . `` I have lived in flesh and blood the pain of migration , and I know the needs that come up when you are in a foreign country . I have also suffered discrimination . I know the great effort of migrants to achieve their goals , '' she says . `` There has been much speculation about my character on social networks and in some media , about my past . Today , I am here facing it , because I am ashamed of nothing . I have a calm conscience and I am good with God . '' CNN 's Ariel Crespo contributed to this report .
