The Superior Chamber of the Electoral Court of the Judicial Power of the Federation (TEPJF) ratified by majority of votes the origin of the vote count of the last election in the municipality of Poza Rica, Veracruz, which according to the first count, won the candidate of the Citizen Movement, Emilio Olvera, for a difference of 500 votes.
The new scrutiny and computation was requested by Morena’s candidate in that demarcation, Adanely Rodríguez, a petition that was approved by the Electoral Court of Veracruz and ratified by the Regional Chamber Xalapa.
The magistrates ruled out the challenge of the Citizen Movement with which he intended to break down the count, to “give certainty in the elections in order to clear any serious or serious indication of faults,” said magistrate Gilberto de Guzmán Bátiz, who with his project “premiered” in the Superior Chamber after protesting last week.
Meanwhile, in the morning in a solemn session for the installation of the Plenary of the Regional Chamber of Mexico City, the president of the TEPJF, Mónica Soto, said that the new era of the Judiciary, “is restarting the claim of our origins, our homeland and our justice.” He said that the court will remain as “bastion of legality, equality and effective protection of political-electoral rights.”
