Mexico prepares for historic elections on June 2, with historical implications for the political landscape of the country. For the first time, Mexico will elect a woman president, with the first two candidates being women. It will be the most important election in Mexican history, with nearly 99 million voters casting ballots for more than 20,000 local, state and congressional positions, as well as the presidency.
As Mexico heads to the polls, voters are deeply concerned about rising cartel violence, which has proven to be a problem. a major electoral issue. Despite some efforts, the current government has struggled to curb the killings, disappearances and extortion plaguing the country. This year’s election season was particularly bloody, with dozens of mayoral candidates and local officials killed.

Corruption remains another major concern. Public institutions continue to lack transparency, and federal and state governments have weakened key anti-corruption agencies by reducing their budgets and autonomy.
