Overview
- The National Electoral Institute has warned that running the judicial vote alongside the 2027 constitutional elections would be logistically very difficult.
- Supreme Court minister Yasmín Esquivel called for INE’s technical assessment to guide any decision on rescheduling the pending judicial contests.
- Esquivel said a date change would not disrupt court operations because current judges and magistrates would remain in their posts until a new process is set.
- Any adjustment to the electoral calendar rests with the Executive and Legislature, and no new date has been decided.
- TEPJF president Mónica Soto welcomed technical options to strengthen electoral laws, while Esquivel urged reviewing restrictive campaign and financing rules that limited public awareness in the last judicial race.
