Overview
- The INE president, Guadalupe Taddei, delivered a compilation of proposals from civil organizations and state electoral institutes at the commission’s site on Barcelona 32, where chair Pablo Gómez received the document.
- INE councilors begin a formal discussion on Tuesday to shape a draft that reflects each councilor’s views rather than forcing a single consensus text.
- The electoral authority underscores its role as a facilitator that forwards proposals to the appropriate branches without presenting a legislative initiative or replacing executive or legislative powers.
- The submissions call for acknowledging the contributions of local electoral bodies (Oples) and for assessing their continued place in the national electoral system.
- A previously leaked internal draft caused friction, which Taddei characterized as a normal institutional error, with dialogue continuing as councilors weigh ideas raised by stakeholders such as mandatory voting.
