Mexico electoral reforms are unlikely to succeed
Significance President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) has repeatedly accused electoral institutions of being biased and unreliable. Such claims have intensified since the June 6 mid-term elections, when decisions on several disputed races at federal and local levels went against Morena candidates. Impacts The divisions that led to conflict over the Electoral Court remain and could drive renewed tensions that will undermine its legitimacy. The Electoral Court’s credibility will be further undermined if investigations into Vargas’s unexplained wealth lead to corruption charges. Government attacks on the electoral authorities will become more common ahead of March’s planned presidential recall referendum.
