General elections are scheduled to be held in Mexico on 2 June 2024.^[3]^[4] Voters will elect a new president to serve a six-year term, all 500 members of the Chamber of Deputies and all 128 members of the Senate of the Republic. The members of the legislature elected on this date will be the first allowed to run for re-election in subsequent elections. These elections are taking place concurrently with the country's state elections.

Article 83 of the Mexican Constitution prohibits incumbent president Andrés Manuel López Obrador from pursuing re-election for another term (sexenio).^[5] Claudia Sheinbaum was widely regarded by her party as the top contender to succeed López Obrador, ultimately securing the nomination of the ruling coalition, Sigamos Haciendo Historia. Xóchitl Gálvez emerged as the frontrunner of Fuerza y Corazón por México following a surge in popularity due to criticisms from López Obrador.^[6]^[7] Citizen's Movement, the only national party without a coalition, nominated Jorge Máynez. This will be the first general election in Mexico's history in which the main contenders for the country's presidency will be women.
