Resumen
CANSINO, César. How to hold unauthentic elections without dying in the process? The case of Mexico and its electoral system. Rev. IUS [online]. 2012, vol.6, n.30, pp.7-34. ISSN 1870-2147.
If there is a single case in the world that has been implemented and perfected under all possible and impossible ways in order to orchestrate unauthentic elections, this case is definitely the Mexican case. Part of the explanation for this lies in the Mexican electoral system, designed to rein discretion over the rule of law. This study analyzes the phenomenon, the failures within the shelter of the law made by the Electoral Tribunal of the Judicial Power of the Federation throughout the 2009 federal elections. However, this exercise applies perfectly to the elections of 2012, because in the end, the electoral law remained the same.
