After the National Regeneration Movement (Morena) party approved the decree that allows public servants to promote the revocation of mandate, the advisers of the National Electoral Institute (INE) pointed out that this is not above the Constitution, that establishes that the electoral bodies are the only ones that can disseminate the exercise of citizen participation.
Yesterday an interpretive decree was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation (DOF) -promoted and voted in less than a week by legislators from Morena- so that the statements of servers are not prohibited during the electoral ban of any campaign or exercise of participation citizen, such as the mandate revocation consultation.
When presenting the Fourth Partial Report of the Comprehensive Plan and Calendar of the Process for the Revocation of the Mandate of the President of the Republic 2021-2022, the electoral advisor Ciro Murayama said: “I understand that there are those who want to return a dead letter to the Constitution from non-constitutional positions and non-democratic, because -regardless of whether or not as people we are with some constitutional precept- it is our obligation to abide by the supreme norm”.
In addition, when referring to the law that establishes that electoral reforms cannot be approved less than 90 days after the process begins, the electoral advisor called the Morena legislators who promoted the decree “cheaters” so that public servants can promote the revocation of manate less than 30 days after the exercise is carried out.

“The decree that was published yesterday (Thursday) is an acknowledgment that the rules of the game with which the revocation of the mandate began does not allow the intervention of public servants and that is why they try to change the rules of the game, once the game has started. Who changes the rules of the game started the match, only the cheaters, ”he pointed out.
Meanwhile, counselor Claudia Zavala asked the Legislative and Executive Branches to comply with the Constitution, since a democracy is not understood if the social pact of coexistence is not respected and if the rules of the game are changed.
“The rules of the game are set beforehand, that is the consensus that those who occupy political representation must reach, but once the rules are set, the democratic principle requires that these rules be followed and today we are in a situation in which it is sought how not to comply with the social pact”, he mentioned.
Counselor José Roberto Ruiz criticized the decree approved by the deputies, as he said that it was a fraud of the Constitution by wanting to interpret what the Magna Carta already establishes; “It’s not genuine Democrats to do that: flip the Constitution on its head,” he charged.

He also spoke about the reform to the Law of the Means of Impugnation System approved by the Senate, which prevents the interference of the Electoral Court of the Judicial Power of the Federation in decisions of the Congress of the Union on its internal organization.
“They have modified the norm so that the Court no longer has jurisdiction in the control of the legal and constitutional regularity of acts of Congress. That is not from genuine Democrats,” said the counselor.
