Mexicali Mayor Admits to Possessing Ballot-Stuffing Accordion

Mexicali Mayor Norma Bustamante's admission of possessing a 'ballot-stuffing accordion' has sparked controversy in Mexico. The video, obtained by reporter Armando Nieblas, shows Bustamante acknowledging the accordion, claiming it was sent to her and is circulating. While she denies receiving it from the Morena party and hopes not to use it, the incident raises serious questions about the integrity of the judicial elections in Mexicali. "Me lo mandaron, es un acordeón que está circulando, lo traigo aquí," Bustamante stated, confirming the possession of the device. The video's release has already generated public discussion about the use of such methods to influence election results. The state electoral authority is expected to investigate the matter further. The incident underscores the need for transparency and accountability in the electoral process.
