The war that has started between President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and the National Electoral Institute (INE) is rapidly escalating. The dimensions it reaches are reserved for forecasting. For nearly a month, the attacks and responses from both sides have been harsh. For example, because the INE withdrew from Morena the candidacies for governor of Félix Salgado, in Guerrero, and Raúl Morón, in Michoacán. Or the other: because of the INE’s agreement for the assignment of multi-member councils, preventing lawmakers from being able to change parties once elected and thus artificially altering the parties’ voting percentages, as is ‘is produced in 2018, and this is followed by Morena took advantage of it. Precisely in response to these two events, the Moreno deputies demand a political trial against the INE advisers. The two INE decisions are now in the hands of the Federal Judicial Power Electoral Tribunal (TEPJF) which, he announced, will vote in session on Tuesday. The war escalated last Thursday, when the INE issued the second warning to López Obrador, in which it warned him that he had not complied with the order to (in the morning), “abstain to disseminate the achievements of government, public works or publish information aimed at influencing the electoral preferences of citizens. ”On Friday, López Obrador said he had not been informed of this decision from the INE. late, INE showed the notification document delivered the day before at 5:38 p.m., in which they warned that if the president continues to fail to comply, he may be entitled to a public reprimand, a fine of around 615 thousand pesos even until an arrest of 36 hours. What happens after? Most likely, a revire, a presidential assault. Perhaps for this reason, last Friday, various associations (of laaargos names) which bring together advisers, magistrates and authorities of all the country’s agencies, federal and local, signed in Puebla what they called the “National Manifesto of the Local Electoral Authorities for the Respect of the Constitutional Order with the Principles of the Mexican Democratic System, the Electoral Public Service and the Shield electoral. This pompous name, in the simple explanation of electoral advisers, is a shield against López Obrador, but also against certain governors. This document bears the signature of INE President Lorenzo Córdova, with whom AMLO maintains a strong confrontation. We will see how far this war goes.
