AND
n eve of The Popular Revocation of Mandate of 2022, since the then General Council of the National Electoral Institute (INE), the electoral counselo Pacific and democratic tool so that, as marked by our Constitution, all dimane power of the people.
From within the INE, in collusion with the opposition, the exercise was torpedoed since its inception: complicated the collection of signatures to request the consultation, then they tried to invalidate them and not achieve it extorted with blackmail under the credible one – argument of not having necessary resources, which resulted in orders by the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation to be held. The principle of minimum effort and a complete dissemination nullity accompanied by a campaign Infodemic of discreditation to exercise.
Before the electoral process of 2024, the voices and agreras feathers assured that Andrés Manuel López Obrador would seek the re -election and even compared it with Hugo Chávez. Once again they failed in their predictions. On June 2 of that year the citizens went out to vote and decided, by large majority, the continuation of the fourth transformation and with it to the first woman president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, who, from the campaign already throughout the national territory, announced to the country its commitments, actions, policies and initiatives of reforms, including the electoral.
The more than 35 million votes obtained by President Sheinbaum meant the will of the majority of the people of Mexico for continuing with a process of transformation of the country and the popular mandate to execute the political actions and reforms raised. Not only did the voters know the implications of the electoral reform, but they ordered it: to diagnose the state in which the current electoral and parties model is, and design a new system that puts democracy and the people in charge.
Forget the opposition that is by sovereign decision of the people and that she herself has been responsible for directing her political organizations to the garbage dump. They did not learn the lesson. Reflection is still pending. It accuses lack of democracy from a democratically mandated minority. He is so far to feel and think of the people that he has not noticed that that same town is fed up with it. Instead of raising changes, it is victimized to ridicule; So much that blames democracy for its defeats and accuses that sovereign will is antidemocratic, that citizen participation is hauling, and that the strengthening of democracy, through a reform that seeks to put it in front, would sink it.
The reduction of legislators and a more democratic way of appointing candidates to be popular representatives, the decrease in money that – from our pockets – is delivered to the political parties – what would pay them to stop being businesses and that instead of continuing to function as the rods of the treasury, they focus on carrying an activity that responds to the public service – are some pending, of many, necessary in the current times of Mexico.
It is not surprising that an opposition that lives in the memory of abuses is scandalized with the progressivism of a project that robustures democracy without excesses or privileges.
Not only should you participate in the chat of aunts and uncles, citizen participation is not limited to the urn to deposit the vote there. Contact your deputy or deputy, let him know what his position is before the electoral reform, ask him to read it and vote on his representation, not in that of his bench or other particular interests.
