No, the Romney's in Mexico no longer practice polygamy, and have not for about 100 years. They are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which has prohibited the practice.
Polygamy is practiced by many different groups worldwide. It is a common cultural practice in many parts of Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Many Muslims and some Christians practice polygamy as a part of their religion. Polygamy is illegal in the US and most western countries, but many still practice it in secret.
Many Middle Eastern Muslims practice polygamy, as it is permissible by their religion and culture. It is also common among ethnic Africans and in some Asian countries. Some Western Christians also practice polygamy, although it is illegal.
Yes, there is still polygamy in the world.
No. The Church of Latter-Day Saints officially banned polygamy in the 1800's when the concept created much debate among the Mormons (another name for those who are affiliated with the Church of Latter Day Saints). However despite this ban many Mormons practice polygamy still. In Utah, about 60,000 Mormons practice polygamy (5% of the Utah Mormon population).
No. Polygamy was made illegal in the U.S. in 1862 by the Merrill Act.
Mitt Romney is still alive.

Yes. Mitt Romney is still a believing and practicing member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) along with his wife, children, and grandchildren. However, due to his busy campaign schedule and security concerns, he has been unable to regularly attend services.
No. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the “Mormon†church) discontinued the practice of polygamy in the United States in 1890 and internationally in 1903. Anyone found entering into a polygamous marriage since that time has been excommunicated from the church. The polygamy ban caused some polygamy supporters to split from the church and create their own groups, many of which are still in existence today. Members of these groups often refer to themselves as “Mormon Fundamentalistsâ€, although they are not affiliated with the mainstream Mormon church.
There are a number of Muslim countries where a man is allowed to take as many as four wives. Also, in some African countries, polygamy is still practiced. And although Mormonism has outlawed polygamy, there are still some fundamentalist Mormons who broke away from the LDS church so that they could continue to practice plural marriage.
