Listen to this note:
The president advisor of the National Electoral Institute (INE), Guadalupe Taddei Zavala, reported that, according to the results of the quick count for the election of the Presidency of the Republic, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, of the coalition "Let's keep making history", is the virtual winner with a vote that is between 58.3 and 60.7 percent.
This exercise, he said, based on a statistical sample representative of the polling stations installed throughout the country, was carried out by a technical advisory committee made up of expert scientists who have placed their prestige and knowledge at the service of Mexican democracy.
The count was carried out in 5,651 polling stations, representing 74.3 percent of the total sample, with a confidence level of at least 95 percent according to the data provided by the committee.
In this regard, he stressed that the percentage of citizen participation in this election day is estimated between 60 and 61.5 percent of the nominal list of voters.
Regarding the votes obtained by the candidates for the presidency of the Republic, the estimated ranges by relation in the order of registration of the parties that nominated them are: Xóchitl Gálvez Ruíz of the coalition "Fuerza y Corazón por México", made up of the National Action Party (PAN), Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) and Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD), obtained a vote that is between 26.6 and 28.6 percent.
Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo of the coalition “Let’s keep making history,” made up of Morena, the Labor Party (PT) and the Green Ecologist Party (PVE) of Mexico, obtained a vote between 58.3 and 60.7 percent.
While Jorge Álvarez Máynez, from Movimiento Ciudadano, obtained a vote between 9.9 and 10.8 percent.
Thus, voting preferences in the Mexican Republic give preference to Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, former head of government of Mexico City and presidential candidate of Morena this 2024, as the preferred candidate for the presidency of Mexico, who will become the 66th president of this country.
Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo was born on June 24, 1962 (age 61) in Mexico City; she is of Jewish descent; her grandparents migrated from Lithuania and Bulgaria.
The candidate of the alliance “Let’s Keep Making History” is the daughter of chemist Carlos Sheinbaum Yoselevitz and biologist Annie Pardo Cemo, both participants in the student movement of 1968.
He attended primary school at the private Manuel Bartolomé Cossío school in Tlalpan, while he completed his high school studies at the Colegio de Ciencias y Humanidades (CCH) Sur, participating in the student movement from 1986 to 1987.
In February 1989, she obtained her undergraduate degree in Physics from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM); in 1990, she began a master's degree in energy engineering at UNAM, and in 1994 she obtained her doctorate in the same subject.
Sheinbaum is married to Jesús María Tarriba Unger, a doctor in physical science from UNAM and financial risk analyst at the Bank of Mexico, and has two children from her first marriage to Carlos Imaz, Mariana Imaz Sheinbaum and Rodrigo Imaz Sheinbaum.
Her first position in public administration was with Andrés Manuel López Obrador. In 2000 she became Secretary of the Environment for Mexico City, a position she left in 2006 to become a spokesperson for AMLO's presidential campaign.
In the 2012 election, the current president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, proposed that he take charge of environmental policy at the national level. He was an active part of the formation of Morena in 2014 and also coordinated the issue of government and politics for the elaboration of López Obrador's 2018-2024 National Project.
She became head of Mexico City in 2018, a position she left on June 15 of this year to participate in the Morena survey that defined who will lead the National Coordination of the Committees for the Defense of the Fourth Transformation, which led her to the presidential candidacy in 2024.
