A deployment of Televisa and Radio Fórmula, I don’t know how many reporters throughout the Zócalo, live interviews. We did a lot of marches, I think we have a record in Zócalos, and nothing appeared.” Let’s remember that this march was held with the aim of demanding free votes, two weeks before the presidential campaigns begin, on March 1, the attendees also demanded respect for institutions such as the National Electoral Institute (INE). They also called for the independence of the judiciary, and the rejection of the disappearance of autonomous bodies and regulatory bodies, a plan that the president has included in the package of reforms presented on February 5.
