SUMMARY
Taddei entered the INE through a random selection process in 2023,
not through appointment by any political party
President Claudia Sheinbaum rejected impunity in the case of recently
resigned National Electoral Institute (INE) president Guadalupe Taddei
and demanded an audit of INE and Local Electoral Bodies (OPLE)
contracts. Such contracts have been concentrated in two companies
since 1999 due to institutional practices that promoted such behavior.
She recalled that the INE president was elected by random selection
because there was no agreement among the parties regarding a specific
candidate profile. A video was shown of past INE president Lorenzo
Córdova acknowledging the existence of the duopoly and stating that
the Council he headed appointed Taddei to the Sonora OPLE in 2014.
Day of the Dead: The Pride of Being Mexican
«Our vision comes from the Indigenous peoples,» Sheinbaum affirmed.
The President noted that today 90% of the country’s citizens feel
proud to be Mexican, in contrast to the erosion of identity during the
neoliberal era.
From the 1988 Election Fraud to a Democracy Where the People Rule
Sheinbaum recalled that Cárdenas was robbed of his victory at the
polls and defended the freedoms won by the people. The President
criticized right-wing intellectuals Enrique Krauze and Héctor Aguilar
Camín for longing for their checks and privileges. «We don’t buy
people’s support. We are building a democratic country,» she explained.
40 Years of the CEU: The Power of Reason in Defense of the UNAM
The President recalled that the student movement, led by the
University Student Council (CEU), in which she participated,
democratically educated tens of thousands of young people. She
championed dialogue, public debate, and reasoned arguments as tools to
defend the university.
