General elections were held in Mexico on 2 June 2024.[4][5] Voters elected 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 were the first allowed to run for re-election in subsequent elections. These elections took place concurrently with the 2024 state elections.

Claudia Sheinbaum was widely regarded by her party as the top contender to succeed president Andrés Manuel 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] Citizens' Movement, the only national party without a coalition, nominated Jorge Máynez. This was the first general election in Mexico's history in which the main contenders for the country's presidency will be women.

Preliminary results from the National Electoral Institute (INE) positioned Sheinbaum as the winner of the presidential election, becoming both the first female and first Jewish President of Mexico.[8][9]
