Possible restoration[edit]
The Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) presented on May 13, 2022 a proposal for an electoral reform that would include the restoration of the post of Vice President, among other 9 proposals. In the proposal, it is proposed that the Vice President of Mexico would be a direct assistant of the President, and that the Vice President could also assist the Senate with voice, but without vote.[4]
The PRI proposal was launched in opposition to proposals of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador on electoral reforms, leading to the 2024 elections.
