The demonstration of this February 26, aims to show the rejection of civil organizations related to the businessman Claudio X. Gonzáles, in addition to the opposition sector to the AMLO government for the approval of Plan B.
With this series of reforms to secondary electoral laws, the opposition has argued that the government seeks to control the elections and reduce the autonomy of the INE, both due to budget cuts and certain restructurings.
The time at which the sympathizers’ meeting was called was at 11:00 a.m., however, those interested were asked to arrive earlier, since they announced early that there would be vehicular cuts, which the president denied.
It will not be a march as such, since the participants do not have a route, it is only expected that people meet directly on the esplanade of the capital’s Zócalo, located in the Historic Center of Mexico City (CDMX).
Although they did not indicate a specific time at which it would end, it is estimated that it will last more than an hour, since there will be at least three speakers: an employee belonging to the electoral service, the journalist Beatriz Pages and the retired minister José Ramón Cossío , at the end of the event they are scheduled to sing the national anthem.
The concentration will be replicated in at least 90 more cities, some abroad.
