"Mass Protests in Mexico Against Electoral Reforms"

Tens of thousands of protesters gathered in Mexico City's Zocalo Square to oppose proposed electoral changes ahead of the upcoming presidential elections, with the opposition accusing President Andrés Manuel López Obrador of attempting to weaken the National Electoral Institute (INE). López Obrador claims the INE is biased and corrupt and is advocating for a reform to reduce its staff and save taxpayers money. Protesters are demanding the independence of the INE and expressing opposition to the government, while López Obrador is supporting former Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum in the upcoming elections.
