Mexico's Supreme Court Strikes Down President's Bid to Reform Electoral System

Mexico's Supreme Court overturned electoral law changes favored by President López Obrador.
The changes would have reduced spending and size of the National Electoral Institute and limit its authority.
López Obrador accused the high court of overstepping its authority by judging whether Congress followed its own rules.
In May, the court overturned another part of the electoral changes because Congress rushed the measure through to a vote without debate, or even time to read it.
The ruling is a major blow to López Obrador, who has made overhauling the electoral system a major priority.
