Abstract

The electoral registry, which comprises both the Electoral Roll and the Nominal List of Voters, plays a central role in the Mexican Electoral System by determining the eligibility of individuals to participate as voters or candidates in elections. The accuracy and comprehensiveness of this instrument are crucial, since it is imperative to ensure the inclusion of all citizens entitled to vote and to be elected as public representatives. This implies guaranteeing that no social group is excluded or disadvantaged, thus allowing all citizens to fully exercise their political-electoral rights.

However, the demographic dynamics of the country and the inherent processes of incorporation and purging of the electoral registry present challenges that make it difficult to achieve a complete and updated inclusion of all citizens at a specific time. Factors such as the interval between the moment a person reaches the age of majority and his or her registration in the voter registry, the time lapses between the change of address and its notification, as well as the death of citizens and the corresponding notification, contribute to make the construction and updating of the voter registry a complex and continuous task.

In this context, this presentation explores various proposals and strategies aimed at modernizing the capture, management and analysis of Mexican electoral registry information. This includes the adaptation and transformation of administrative entities in the current context of data science.
