Guadalupe Taddei, president of Mexico's National Electoral Institute (INE), submitted her resignation to the Chamber of Deputies on October 26. This follows an investigation by Mexico's Federal Audit Office into multiple alleged contract irregularities at the INE, involving conflicts of interest and the handling of public funds. Taddei was accused of awarding multi-million dollar contracts to contractors with whom she had personal ties. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum expressed support for the decision on the same day, while denying that Taddei's departure would trigger a crisis for the institution.
