Overview
- The presidential commission led by Pablo Gómez delivered a first version of the electoral reform to President Claudia Sheinbaum on January 6 following public forums and studies.
- Sheinbaum said the initiative is unfinished and gave no date to send it to Congress, pushing back on Ricardo Monreal’s projection of approval by March.
- She will meet Monday with Morena’s coordinators Ricardo Monreal and Adán Augusto López to review the legislative agenda that includes the reform.
- Forum inputs show broad support for cutting public funding to political parties and reducing the costs of organizing elections.
- Participants also favor shrinking the number of deputies, but the size and configuration are unresolved, including the debate over proportional seats and how to preserve minority representation.
