Resumen
AZIZ NASSIF, Alberto. Elecciones y polarización política en México. Desacatos [online]. 2007, n.24, pp.13-54. ISSN 2448-5144.
The pact of transition, intended to ensure the legal scrutiny of the ballots and to guarantee a fair electoral competition, was severely damaged during the 2006 presidential election by several actions: the autonomy of the Federal Electoral Institute was compromised by the replacement of its counselors; the excluding practices of the President and the illegal intervention of businessmen associations destroyed the possibility of having a fair election; a campaign financing model that used excessive public funds and an unequal access to the media, generated the longest and most expensive slander campaign in the country's history.All these elements contributed to the emergence of a conflict that has affected the incipient and fragile Mexican democracy.
