The 4T didn't achieve the qualified majority to appoint 56 magistrates; senators denounced imposition and nepotism
But the opposition halted the attempt.Although the 4T may return with a new list, the message was clear: the country is no longer willing to give it everything.
The Senate stopped, for now, Morena's electoral colonization. But the ruling party will try again. Because for the regime,if it doesn't win with votes... it wants to win with loyal magistrates.
Morena doesn't seek to strengthen institutions: it seeks to subdue them.
Morena is not interested in an autonomous referee, but an obedient one; its failures are part of a plan where the vote is an obstacle and the law is adjusted to power.
Because for the ruling party, the rules only matter if they give it an advantage.If they can't win with votes... they want to win with loyal judges and subdued courts.
Today it was the Senate that put a stop. But tomorrow it will be another institution, another attempt, another move disguised as a reform.
Morena failed in its attempt to appoint electoral magistrates to its liking in the country's local courts.This Tuesday, the Senate rejected the proposal pushed by the Political Coordination Board, chaired by Adán Augusto López.The ruling bloc did not reach the qualified majority.
During the debate, PAN senators accused Morena of trying to impose allies disguised as judges.
The PAN member Mario Vázquez presented an audio where a conversation is revealed.
Between Senator Javier Corral and an applicant, Adela Alicia Jiménez. With possible prior agreements.The scandal showed that the distribution of positions was already agreed upon.
Morena's defense was neither legal nor ethical, it was political.What's at stake is the control of the courts that validate state elections.
Less than two years before the next key local elections. Morena seeks to control electoral justice from within.
The appointment of 56 magistrates is not a formality:it's a strategic move to safeguard its interests.
