MEXICO: Federal electoral tribunal in crisis
Reyes Rodríguez Mondragón has resigned as head of Mexico’s federal electoral tribunal (TEPJF) just six months before major elections in the country. Rodríguez announced his resignation following several days of chaos within the TEPJF, which serves to resolve disputes arising within federal electoral processes and certify the validity of elections. This came as three TEPJF magistrates turned on Rodríguez, requesting he resign due to a lack of faith in his leadership. However, political motivations may well be the true reason for this mutiny.
