AMLO to down size National Electoral Institute [INE]

It is curious to me that one can say that the organization responsible for running "exemplary elections" has somehow not performed well. I have no doubt that there is room for improvement but it seems like an odd priority to be tackling if one is interested in strengthening our democracy. It seems to be more in line with a president who is unhappy with an organization that has not bowed to his every whim. While it isn't something for tourists to necessarily be concerned about, as a Mexican citizen I am quite worried about another independent branch of the federal government being downsized while the military continues to be expanded. I am not impressed with this move by the president.
