The proposal of reform of the Judiciary which seeks that magistrates, judges and ministers be elected by popular vote, enters today the phase of citizen surveys promoted by Brunette.
Claudia Sheinbaum It seeks to calm the nerves of investors and open itself to public opinion. They fear the violation of the rule of law during his six-year term.
However, analysts consulted by EL DEBATE warn that, having the support of AMLOBoth surveys how the dialogues could become a simulation, ensuring the approval of the reform.
Survey
Mario Delgado, national leader of Morena, He pointed out that three surveys will be carried out on the reform to the Power of attorney, of which two will be through specialized companies and one by the party. He shared that each company will carry out 1,200 questionnaires, plus those that are carried out Brunette, which will be applied at home. Yesterday, the Morenista insisted that the surveys They will not be binding, but they will be a key element for legislators’ decision-making.
He announced that the results will be delivered this Monday to the virtual president-elect, Claudia Sheinbaum.
Marcos del Rosario Rodríguez, law expert and analyst, criticized the fact that a survey determines the viability and provenance of a reform of this magnitude, which has to do with the balance and division of powers.
Although Mario Delgado and the virtual president herself have said that it is not an issue to legitimize, so what is it for? he launched.
Recognizing that the legislature has the key role, he explained that we will have to wait until it is determined how the Congress after the election and if finally Brunette and their allies obtain a qualified majority, which is what allows constitutional changes to be made.
Qualified majority
The academic shared that the INE has until August 23 to resolve the spaces and whether the challenges are resolved or not.
However, in the event that the ruling party, PT and the Green Party If they obtain a qualified majority, Marcos del Rosario Rodríguez highlighted that both the survey and the forums and dialogues with lawyers, universities and experts would end up being a simulation.
They would be a series of simulations that only end up as validation factors. And I believe that we should not shy away from discussion. All social sectors, yes, we must deliberate, but also, we must demand seriousness when it is evidently something that we know is going to happen, he criticized.
Bernardino Esparza Martínez, an expert in constitutional law at La Salle, added that the Power of attorney It has many characteristics that must be understood from the inside, not from the outside, as the survey suggests.
Power of attorney
He highlighted that many respondents do not know, for example, what the process is for appointing judges or magistrates, who have a judicial career within the country, who have been specialists for many years and who take exams where they have to pass legal knowledge. If they do not approve of that legal knowledge, they are not judges or they are not magistrates.
Opacity?
The legal expert highlighted that there is a lack of information about who is going to be asked, where they are going to be asked, and in what part of the national territory they are going to be asked.
And, if it is house to house, there are at least 100 million people who have voting credentials.
He criticized that it is something unnecessary that would have a result in favor of the pollsters, spending party resources, which, at the end of the day, receive resources from the government.
I believe that these types of surveys are absolutely useless, he stated.
For Esparza Martínez, legislators, like all people in power, should take dialogue and knowledge more seriously to make reform.
Political use
Justice should not become politics. That is the issue that legislators are talking about. They’re going to have to do their thing. They have a political line that they have to attend to. It’s very good, but they have to be more aware, he said.
In that sense, he analyzed that if there is corruption, it should be assessed where and try to combat it with laws.
He denied that Mexico can be compared with other countries that have elected ministers and judges, such as Bolivia or even the United States, highlighting that its idiosyncrasy is completely different from that of Mexico.
