💨 Abstract

Mexican senators have passed regulations for implementing a judicial overhaul that aims to elect judges by popular vote. The move was initiated by former President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador and has raised concerns among investors and allies. The secondary legislation is now to be reviewed by the lower house, with the ruling party holding a majority. An extraordinary election to elect justices will be held in mid-2025 following a Senate call before October 16.
