The demonstration to peacefully defend the INE is called for next November 13, the day that President López Obrador will turn 69. That Sunday, the president will be in Palenque, Chiapas.
The president affirmed that his purpose of sending the reform initiative is to banish electoral fraud in Mexico, since for years he suffered from them.
“I am proposing this reform because I want to be consistent, I don’t want tomorrow to say ‘well, and why, if Mexico has suffered more than anywhere else in the world from fraud, why didn’t you propose a constitutional reform?'” , said.
“Other people’s sorrow”, says AMLO to the president of the INE by survey
López Obrador said that those who have spoken out against it, it is because they do not have “love for the people”, so they do not want him to relinquish the power to make decisions such as the election of counselors and magistrates of the Electoral Tribunal of the Judicial Power.
“Even if they go to mass on Sundays, they have no love for the people and they are racist, mostly class-oriented and very hypocritical, that is, let them know that they are not democrats either, they are the ones who have participated in electoral fraud and would like to continue having the control of the electoral organisms to continue doing fraud”, he highlighted.
