Overview
- The INE said Tuesday that 30 officials linked to former president Guadalupe Taddei have resigned as the council carries out a collegial review of top-level posts.
- Blanca Yassahara Cruz García was named interim president after Taddei’s late‑October resignation and has ordered reviews of procurement files and paused some adjudication processes.
- The General Council rejected three candidates for local electoral councils in Guerrero and Oaxaca over alleged ties to Taddei, and it plans stronger vetting in new convocatorias.
- Ricardo Monreal announced the Chamber of Deputies will open registration for the permanent INE presidency from November 9 to 13 with staged evaluations, interviews, a quinteta and tie‑breaking rules including insaculation or Supreme Court involvement if needed.
- Federal auditors and the INE’s internal control office are reviewing contracts awarded during Taddei’s term while national leaders call for sanctions where warranted and insist the 2027 election preparations must continue uninterrupted.
