In response to a question in his morning press conference at the National Palace, the president said that his opponents have the right, as they threatened, to go to court to sue her, claiming the unconstitutionality of the proposal.
And he considered it pure politicization, because it is not a constitutional reform of the election law, but rather a change in the secondary amendments and they are voted on by a simple majority, so they cannot contradict what the constitution stipulates.
The president insisted that the most important thing in the new proposal is to reduce the number of deputies from 500 to 300 and that these are not multi-members, but they are elected directly by the people and not by political parties, so that everyone is a true representative. of voters.
He said that the other important issue is the low budget of the political parties that receive a lot of money from the treasury. He added that it is an amendment to the apparatus of the National Electoral Institute and its court, which is a very cumbersome amendment and is spent on salaries and irregularities.
In addition, its chancellors and judges are wholly elected by the people and not, as now, by parties, who put their subordinates and kinsmen in those positions, the ruler denounced.
He added, “This is what came in the electoral reform, an amendment so that there is not a lot of spending by officials and legislators who live full of interest and privileges, a golden tyranny of the rich and the poor.”
He added that the proposal also does not allow well-known wallets (bank cards) to buy votes.
To defend all this, he said, INED presidents who have been involved in election fraud, such as the teacher Esther Gordillo (in the judicial process of corruption) who led the fraud in 2006 when they awarded the presidency to Felipe Calderon, came to the discussion .
