Political developments in Venezuela and Mexico
Overview
In Venezuela, the National Assembly has preselected 30 candidates to form a Judicial Nominations Committee. This body is responsible for renewing magistrates for the Supreme Tribunal of Justice (TSJ) from a pool of 124 applicants. The selected members, chosen based on professional trajectory and democratic values, are expected to be sworn in on October 20.
In Mexico, research presented to the National Electoral Institute (INE) by UN Women indicates widespread political violence against women during the 2023–2024 electoral cycle. The study found that approximately 95.3% of federal legislative candidates and 95.9% of state congress candidates reported experiencing violence, with psychological violence being the most common form at 95.1%.
Additionally, Pedro Haces Jr. has registered his candidacy to coordinate Morena’s defense committees in the Tlalpan borough of Mexico City for the 2027 elections.
