The president counselor of the National Electoral Institute (INE), Guadalupe Taddei, announced that after a simulation it was determined that in the judicial election on June 1, citizens will take less than 10 minutes to cast their vote. During an interview on Heraldo Televisión with journalist Javier Solórzano, Taddei detailed that the process will include identification at the polling station, ballot distribution, voting in a booth, and finally depositing the ballots in the boxes.
According to the simulation carried out by the INE, the entire procedure will take approximately nine minutes and 15 seconds, which may vary depending on the circumstances. Taddei mentioned that the INE faces a significant challenge in organizing this election due to the number of candidates and the design of the ballots, which will require selecting numbers.
She also indicated that forums will be held for candidates to present their proposals, given the challenge of conducting debates with so many candidacies. Regarding the upcoming electoral reform, Taddei stated that the INE will seek active participation in the process, leveraging its technical and operational knowledge, as well as its role as a guaranteeing body in the subject.
Additionally, the president counselor mentioned that the INE is evaluating the possibility of implementing an "emergency operation" to provide preliminary results on the night of the judicial election.
