Polls Show Gen Z Strongly Backs Sheinbaum as Youth Activists Promote Nov. 15 March

Many young Mexicans engage politically through social networks rather than party structures.

Overview

  • Five surveys published between January and October 2025 report 71–86% approval for President Claudia Sheinbaum among Generation Z.
  • The polling cited comes from Buendía y Márquez, El Financiero and Enkoll, which each recorded strong support from younger respondents.
  • Organizers promoted a “Generación Z” demonstration for November 15 in Mexico that reportedly included calls for Sheinbaum’s resignation.
  • INEGI’s 2020 census counted 13.0 million adolescents, and the electoral roll lists roughly 25 million people ages 18–29.
  • Historical data show young voters have had the lowest turnout in federal elections from 2009 to 2024, even as researchers note they favor demonstrations, petitions, boycotts and online mobilizations.
