Escándalo en el INE: Videos revelan presunto reparto de millones ligado a Taddei por contrato

What did you think?

An unidentified man discusses percentage shares and millions of dollars in hidden-camera footage presented as evidence of alleged payments connected to Mexico's voter-ID contracts.

Mexico's Azteca Noticias airs excerpts released by the news outlet Latinus in a Hechos segment presented by Javier Alatorre. He says the recordings involve Guadalupe Taddei and electoral-agency supplier Alfredo Hernández Casillas. Taddei headed the National Electoral Institute, known as the INE, from 2023 to 2026.

The INE is Mexico's autonomous electoral authority, responsible for organizing federal elections. The contract discussed in the report concerns production of the voter credential, a document central to the country's electoral system.

In the excerpts, the man refers to determining "our 30 percent" and recounts someone describing annual authentication revenue of more than sixty million dollars. These are statements made in the recording, not established contract values or proof that any payment reached Taddei. The report's allegation is that money connected to the credential contract was to be divided, including sums intended for her.

Alatorre closes with his own categorical accusation that Taddei is involved in corruption, also criticizing her relationship with the government and Morena, Mexico's governing party. That conclusion is the presenter's assertion. The segment does not include a response from Taddei or Hernández Casillas, or an official finding establishing the alleged payments.
