Election observers voice concerns about Mexico's judicial elections | AP News
Electoral watchdogs at the Organization of American States have expressed concern over the low turnout in Mexico’s historic and contentious judicial elections. They're recommending that countries in the Americas not follow Mexico's path. In a report, the OAS's electoral mission stated that the June 1 election was “extremely complex” and “polarizing." Observers said the vote was marked by a “widespread lack of awareness” among voters about what they were voting for, and who the thousands of candidates were. In Sunday’s vote, Mexicans elected 881 federal judges and another 1,800 state judges as part of a complete overhaul of the judiciary.
Meanwhile down here, the last vestiges of our democracy are being swept away #mexpol #JudicialElections #authoritarianism

Republican candidate Tami C. Pierce lost to Democratic Judge DaSean A. Jones by fewer than 500 votes out of more than 1 million cast. Judge David Peeples held that more than 1,400 of those votes were illegal, and it was impossible to determine which candidate received them.
Eight sitting judges in the Houston area were ousted in their Democratic primaries. A losing judge and two winning candidates are among those who say race and gender were among the reasons.

Local political and legal experts say judges’ qualifications, experiences and temperaments do not often impact the outcome of judicial races in the Houston area, because there are 50-plus seats on the Harris County ballot, those races typically get little coverage in the news media and many voters do not know much about incumbent judges or their opponents.
