The truth about elections, held to a single standard.

Elections documented, attacked, and defended — with proven falsification kept strictly apart from interference, propaganda, and mere anomaly. Every finding is tiered by the strength of its evidence.

Mexico 2024 General Election

Claudia Sheinbaum won the 2 June 2024 presidential election with 59.76% of the votes cast — the first woman elected president of Mexico — as Morena and its allies also took large congressional majorities; Xóchitl Gálvez conceded the morning after a brief election-night call to watch the count. The cycle was Mexico's most violent on record: ACLED documented over 330 attacks on political figures during the federal campaign, concentrated in local races, while the INE-run presidential count itself drew no substantiated fraud claims.

Five categories, never conflated

The difference between these is the whole point. An attacked election is not the same as a falsified one.

Result falsification

The recorded numbers do not reflect the votes cast.

Process violations

Unequal media access, repression, illegal financing, vote buying, misuse of state resources.

Foreign interference

Cyberattacks, hack-and-leak, covert foreign financing, impersonation of media or institutions by a foreign state or proxy.

Information operations

Troll farms, fake local-media networks, covert political ads, coordinated inauthentic amplification — foreign or domestic.

Statistical anomalies

Patterns in the data worth examining — explicitly not proof of fraud.

A finding sits in exactly one category. Colors and icons carry the same meaning everywhere on the site.

What was proven — and what was not

The clearest test of a trustworthy record is whether it can hold both statements at once.

What is established

Information operationsConfirmed
Under the government’s “Parasol Wyborczy” (Election Umbrella) programme, NASK and partners handled roughly 27,500 potential incidents, reported over 16,000 accounts linked to influence operations to platforms, and identified 176 candidate-impersonation incidents (169 blocked).

Information operationsCorroborated
The Russia-linked Doppelganger operation targeted the campaign on X, mimicking the branding of legitimate Polish outlets to push anti-EU and anti-Ukraine narratives; researchers attributed it to Russia’s EU-sanctioned Social Design Agency.

What is not established

Result falsificationDebunked
That the count was falsified or the outcome would change — not established. The only body to adjudicate found the confirmed irregularities immaterial to the result.
Sources:1 2
Process violationsContested
The legitimacy of the Supreme Court chamber that validated the election is itself contested — rejected by the current government, European courts and many Supreme Court judges. The dispute concerns the validating body’s status, not evidence that the tally was wrong.
