in the sections of early political career and head of government of Mexico City there seems to be an immense focus on the positive achievements of Sheinbaum and there hardly any mentions of controversies or mistakes. No candidate for Presidential elections reaches that point without a controversy. One example not mentioned is her support of AMLO in getting rid of the National Electoral Institute (INE) an institute independent of parties and government that ensures fair elections.

Not to antagonize, but to say that the INE is «independent of parties and government» is not exactly accurate. The Consejeros Electorales (Electoral Counselors) are appointed by the Chamber of Deputies upon the candidates selected by the Junta de Coordinación Política (Political Coordination Board), which in turn is integrated by the leaders of each political fraction with representation in said chamber. Hence, strictly speaking, the Electoral Counselors do depend of the government, in this case the Legislative branch and the political parties in it.
To illustrate my point, and drawing a parallel with the USA, it is like saying that the appointment of judges from the Supreme Court do not depend of political parties and/or government when, evidently, the President appoints as judges people who are more likely to support their government and political party views.

Basically, to reduce the time from election to ascension (6 months was deemed too long), and to allow new presidents to prepare the federal budget for their first year, which initially was presented by the leaving president. (source) EOZyo (мѕğ) 00:55, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey all. I'm wondering why Sheinbaum is listed as being "predominantly Jewish" on this page. Every reliable source says or heavily implies she's of full Jewish descent. One of her parents is Sephardi and the other is Ashkenazi. Yeah, different Jewish ethnic divisions, but still 100% Jewish nonetheless. It's bothering me a bit and I would like to change it to the first Mexican president of full Jewish descent or something similar instead. Obviously, I want to get some consensus before making such a change in case I missed something. FrozenIcicle (talk) 01:58, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, should be full Jewish... the 2024 Mexican general election page also has her as the "first person of full Jewish descent to be elected president of Mexico". And as you point out, news articles that touch on her ethnicity also say this. EchoLuminary (talk) 02:59, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Full Jewish descent" is fine. I don't think it should be in the lead paragraphs since the lead paragraphs should serve as an intro/summary of the article, capturing the major points of this biography. It is still mentioned in the sections below, however. Morogris (✉ • ✎) 19:11, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
