CEDILLO-DELGADO, Rafael. Gender Parity in 2015 Local Elections in Tabasco, State of Mexico and Mexico City. LiminaR [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.1, pp.186-201. ISSN 2007-8900.
This article examines the degree of accomplishment and effectiveness ofthegender quota in three states where local elections were held in 2015: Tabasco, Mexico City, and State of Mexico. The article looks at the new incorporation of gender parity, wich force political parties to include candidatures of 50% candidates for each sex, illustrates how this measure is interpreted and put in practice by political parties and electoral bodies. The article shows that in Tabasco parity was achieved in the integration of the Local Congress, in contrast to what happened in the Federal District and State of Mexico.
