Mónica Soto, a magistrate of the Electoral Tribunal of the Judicial Power of the Federation (TEPJF), criticized the opposition for claiming there is overrepresentation in Congress and accused them of dishonesty about their intentions. During the Tribunal's Judgment Analysis Workshop, she stated that opposition members are misrepresenting the facts, arguing that they were demanding a change in constitutional application instead of the enforcement of existing laws. Soto highlighted that the opposition was not genuinely interested in applying constitutional principles but rather wanted to alter the criteria used for distributing proportional representation based on their dissatisfaction with the electoral results.

Soto pointed out that the opposition's narrative of overrepresentation is a falsehood that has persisted without accountability. She discussed how the opposition and commentators neglect to mention in their analyses that they sought a change in the criteria implemented for the past six congressional elections. Her comments come in light of recent electoral outcomes deemed unfavorable by certain parties, which fueled calls for a revision of established electoral criteria rather than their application. Soto emphasized the importance of upholding the constitutional framework in electoral processes, underscoring the need for integrity in political discourse.

This discussion touches on significant issues within Mexican electoral politics, particularly with the growing tensions between the government and opposition parties. Soto's remarks reflect larger debates about the legitimacy of electoral outcomes and the mechanisms by which representation is allocated in Congress. By calling out the opposition's tactics, the magistrate aims to strengthen the rule of law and ensure that the electoral process remains grounded in constitutional principles, even amidst discord and political maneuvering.
