💨 Abstract

The Mexican government, under President Claudia Sheinbaum, has launched a significant electoral reform process, the second major one in a decade. The proposed changes aim to centralize democracy and include citizens but have sparked controversy. Critics warn of potential democratic setbacks and lack of inclusivity. The "Comisión Presidencial para la Reforma Electoral," led by Pablo Gómez, will assess the electoral system and draft legislative proposals. Key topics include altering representation in Congress and enhancing citizen participation.
