Hundreds of thousands of demonstrators in Mexico City chanted slogans and held placards to protest against changes to electoral laws. They say the changes can jeopardize Mexico’s independent election agency and its ability to organize elections.
In one of the largest protests against Mr. López Obrador’s administration, more than 150,000 demonstrators filled Mexico City’s large Zócalo square and adjacent streets in the historic district of the country’s capital, a senior police official said. Protesters waved flags, umbrellas and banners with the distinctive pink colors of the National Electoral Institute, also known as INE. Others wore pink caps and clothes.
