Widespread Support for Reform
Morena conducted three national surveys to understand the public’s stance on the proposed reforms. These surveys were fully funded by the party.
Two of them were conducted through polling firms that had the most accurate predictions in the 2024 elections, while the third was conducted directly by Morena.
The results revealed that 77% of respondents, according to De las Heras, 83% according to Enkoll, and 81% according to Morena’s internal polling commission, are in favor of a judicial reform.
This high level of support indicates a significant demand for changes in the judicial system.

Opinions on Corruption in the Judicial System
At a press conference, Sheinbaum highlighted that a large portion of the sample believes there is corruption within the judicial system and that, regardless of whether they voted for her, they believe reform is necessary.
She emphasized that the survey results are solely for informational purposes and have no other objective than to reflect public sentiment.
The data was presented to Sheinbaum by Mario Delgado, the president of Morena, during a visit to the transition house.
The survey was conducted with a sample of 1,200 people for the polling firms and 1,400 for Morena’s internal survey, and it was carried out door-to-door.
