| Summary: |
This article is a study of the components of the electoral system, designed
by the Mexican legislature to integrate the federal parliament. Knowing the
importance of the electoral systems as means that allow citizens to turn
their ballots cast at the polls into seats in favor of a particular candidate or
political party. In this analysis we consider the following issues: the constitutional
evolution of the Mexican electoral system, the participation of minority
forces in the composition of the Senate and House of Representatives, which
are the division of the territory into electoral districts, the electoral barrier
laid down by the authorities to political parties in order obtain representation
in the parliament, as well as the allocation formula that applies to the votes
obtained. In the final analysis of this study, we conclude that the Mexican
electoral system is majoritarian, even though it is viewed as proportional. |
