Sheinbaum Closes First Year With Record Popularity

A Banamex synthesis places her first‑year approval above 70%.

Overview

  • Banamex, using comparable surveys dating back to Zedillo, reports Sheinbaum’s average approval above 70%, higher than at the same point for the past five presidents.
  • After four straight monthly declines, August polls showed a rebound with readings of 70% (Buendía & Márquez), 71% (Mitofsky), 79% (Enkoll), 74% (El Financiero and QM/El Heraldo), 82% (Factométrica), 77% (TResearch), 64% (AtlasIntel) and 78% (Algoritmo).
  • Despite her high personal ratings, Banamex says the public rates the government’s handling of insecurity most negatively.
  • Presenting the first‑year report in Congress, Interior Secretary Rosa Icela Rodríguez vowed no impunity for corrupt public servants regardless of rank or wealth.
  • Specialists cited in coverage say the strong approval provides political capital for Sheinbaum to sustain strategic projects in the next phase of her term.
