Election of new INE directors will be by lottery

This Thursday night most of the parties, except Movimiento Ciudadano, voted in favor of the new INE directors being chosen by lottery.

The members of the Political Coordination Board (Jucopo), did not reach a consensus to define a profile for the Presidency of the National Electoral Institute (INE), as well as a counselor and two electoral counselors, who according to the calendar, on Wednesday had to send to the board of directors.

“Jucopo communicates: After having listened to the arguments and following not having reached a consensus. There is no consensus so far,” said a statement that they shared with the media.

Therefore, they determined that they would meet once more this Thursday, March 30, to continue the search for consensus.

According to sources in the lower house close to EL UNIVERSAL, the parliamentary coordinators focused the debate on the method of voting, instead of proposing profiles. The opposition proposed that, if they arrive at the raffle, 10 women will raffle for the presidencywhile Morena and her allies pointed out that the insaculation should be by quintets.

In the forecasts for today’s session, the vote on five Constitutional opinions was contemplated, and in forecasts was the election of councilors, which is why Jucopo was already enlisting another meeting.
