Most of the elections are for governor, but those from Mexico City and Guerrero will be able to vote for Diputado Migrante and people from Jalisco can vote for Diputado por Representación de Proporcional.[35] INE approved a pilot program allowing prison inmates who are held in protective custody in Hermosillo (District 4, Sonora); Villa Comaltitlán, Chiapas; Coatlán del Río (District 4 Jojutla, Morelos); and Buena Vista Tomatlán (District 12 Apatzingán, Michoacán) to vote absentee ballot from May 17–19, 2021. The present order covers only male inmates, but it may be extended to females.[36]
Organized crime and politics
Several different criminal gangs implicated in drug trafficking, human trafficking, and fuel theft have a great deal of political influence in some states.[37] The Sinaloa Cartel exercises considerable control in the northwest while the Jalisco New Generation Cartel′s (CJNG) influence is in the west including Michoacan and Guerrero. The Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas are powerful in the northeast.[37]
In the past, drug cartels have influenced campaigns by supporting candidates and even running some of their own member or sympathizers as candidates for office[37] such as Lucero Sánchez López, former federal deputy from Sinaloa who was also Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán′s lover.[38] Election-related violence is of particular concern in Michoacan, not only because of the aforementioned drug cartels but also because of armed community police who often act as vigilantes.[38]
Ignacio Sánchez Cordero, who sought the candidacy of Шаблон:MRN party and Шаблон:PVEM party for mayor of Puerto Morelos Municipality in Quintana Roo, was assassinated on February 24.[39] At least 64 murders related to the political process occurred between September 2020 and March 2021, and Security Secretary (SSP) Rosa Icela Rodríguez promised more protection from the “crime party.”[40]
As of March 18, 55 candidates and precandidates had been murdered. 80% of the cases involved individuals who belonged to a party that did not control the state.[41] Between September 7, 2020, and June 5, 2021, 91 candidates were assassinated.[42]

Шаблон:PRI party says that vandals entered the candidate's house and burned it, in addition to sexually assaulting the candidate, and they destroyed voting material. Шаблон:MORENA party says the allegation are false.[21]
