Next June, millions of Mexicans will head to the polls to elect a new president, along with 500 members of Congress, 128 members of the Senate, and thousands of local officials. The Mexican election is a pivotal event in Latin America, with significant implications for the US. With both countries sharing a 2,000-mile border, close economic ties, and common challenges, this election will address critical issues such as security, migration, economics, and the future of democratic institutions. This panel brings together a group of experts to delve into these topics and discuss the upcoming election in an international context.

The event will be recorded but not streamed.

Co-sponsored by the University of Michigan's Center for Political Studies (CPS), Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (LACS), and the Department of Political Science
