Mexico Edition.
Mexicans living abroad could cast their vote online in this year’s midterm elections after voting for almost 15 years by mail. This year, Mexico will hold 13 gubernatorial races and hundreds of congressional races. Eight of the states in which a new governor will be elected allow voting from abroad, including Michoacán, Colima, Zacatecas and Nayarit. The online voting system will be tested and assessed to be extended to the 2024 presidential election. The liaison with Mexican emigres also comments on a renewed program to report extorsions and bribes against migrants, the plans to restart efforts to help families and communities to invest US remittances, and the reported neglect on returned families and unocumented migrants in need of legal aid.
