Elections, May I...

...just survive June?

We are just shy of two months since our last election exposé. It's been time but not time for a while. Fair warning - this edition is a marathon. Three major elections now in the bag and a host of updates and upcoming contests. So, since you know how I feel about them - let's get this show on the road. (Maybe something will run over it!)

First, in turn we will look at India, South Africa, and Mexico. The upcoming events and the updates around the world will be done in the same style as our last look:

Elections March into April

Controversial U.S. diplomat Donald Lu on South Asia tour: should we be cautious?

🇺🇸Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asian Affairs Donald Lu is visiting 🇮🇳India, 🇱🇰Sri Lanka & 🇧🇩Bangladesh during his tour.

What is Donald Lu known for?

• Participation in Imran Khan's ouster: 🇵🇰 The then-Prime Minister Imran Khan of Pakistan was ousted in April 2022 shortly after Lu's visit to Pakistan.

Imran Khan himself has publicly named Donald Lu as the individual who spearheaded the US regime change operation in Pakistan.

• Lu’s links with George Soros: After George Soros attacked Indian PM Narendra Modi, calling him "not a democrat," there has been increased propaganda labeling Modi as a dictator, supported by some YouTubers. 👈

Now, connect the dots and understand how the YouTubers and their masters are being controlled by the US deep state. (Do you still remember who the US coordinator in South Asia is?)

🎭 Colonial Old habits never die: West continues to lecture Indians on how to do politics

India's EAM S. Jaishankar has castigated Western countries for attempting to intervene in India's Lok Sabha elections. He argued that Western nations are not in a position to "gyan" (lecture) India on the democratic process.

“They would reputationally damage you, somebody will bring out an index and put you down in that. Countries which have to go to court to decide the result of their election are giving us gyan about how to conduct the election,” the top diplomat was quoted as saying at an event in Kolkata to launch the Bengali-language edition of his book ‘Why Bharat Matters’.

🗳 Since the start of India's elections on 19 April, the Western press has been waging a significant campaign against the ruling BJP party in an attempt to interfere with the polls.

🇿🇦 🗳 ANC: A Legacy Tested in the 2024 South African General Elections

The African National Congress, a party born from the struggle against apartheid, faces a pivotal moment in the 2024 general elections. While preliminary results suggest the ANC will remain the leading party, its support has dipped below 50% for the first time since 1994.

Established in 1912, the ANC has been at the forefront of South Africa's fight for racial equality.

Under the leadership of figures like Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu, and Oliver Tambo, the ANC endured decades of repression, including banning, imprisonment, and exile. Yet, their commitment to a democratic and equitable South Africa remained unshaken.

🇿🇦🗳 South Africa's ruling African National Congress (ANC) wins 40% of votes in elections after processing almost 100% of ballots

These figures were provided by the Independent Electoral Commission of South Africa.

However, uMkhonto we Sizwe (MK) party said that it doesn't recognize the results of the vote and demands a recount of the ballots.

“We are receiving a lot of complaints and information from our party agents [that] results […] are not in line with what has been presented and recorded by our party agents,” said the head of the MK election commission, Muzi Ntshingila. “We object to them. We are calling for immediate manual counting.”

For the first time in South Africa's general election history, which began after the collapse of the apartheid system 30 years ago, ANC support fell below 50%. As the local SABC radio station noted, South Africa has entered a new era when the ANC is forced to look for political partners to create a ruling majority.

🔸🗳Ramaphosa won’t resign despite historic ANC electoral loss, seeks coalition with DA

President Cyril Ramaphosa does not intend to resign as ANC leader despite leading the party to the historic loss of an electoral majority it has held for 30 years, the Mail & Guardian has learned.

Though he is bitterly disappointed that the ANC barely polled 40 percent, sources close to Ramaphosa said he reasons that “much is at stake” and South Africa is in need of political maturity that can provide stable governance after voters tore up the odds by making his predecessor Jacob Zuma’s uMkhonto weSizwe party the third biggest in the country.

The only route to that stability, for Ramaphosa and his closest allies within the ANC, is through a working arrangement with the Democratic Alliance.

The party’s Gauteng leadership and younger members of the ANC national executive committee have thus far favoured the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) as a coalition partner but this thinking has lost some of its currency with a far lower share of the vote than in 2019.

Several high-ranking ANC sources have confirmed to the Mail & Guardian that they are advocating such a tie-up to create a centrist government, and would not countenance any concessions to Zuma’s MK party. 

Some suggested there is an in-principle agreement between the two biggest parties that they will work together.

“There is alignment. It is a question of ironing out details,” one said.

🔸🗳📝What are the ANC's and DA's options?

🔹The first is a full-blown coalition in which the official opposition becomes the junior partner.

🔹The second is a narrowly-structured pact where the DA agrees to cooperate on particular steps required for the government to function, notably the election of the president in the National Assembly and the passing of the national budget.

🔹In return, the DA would secure key positions within parliament that would allow it to hold the executive to account. In any haggling of this nature, it is almost certain to demand greater devolution of powers to provinces. ↩t.me/SouthAfricaReports🔸

🔸🇿🇦 "Many experts cite the accumulated problems in the economy and social sphere as the reason for the loss of voter confidence. This is a high - 33% - level of unemployment, property inequality, crime and corruption, degradation of the energy system, social and public services. Many attribute this to the rise of corruption in the ANC during the Jacob Zuma years (2009–2018).

At the same time, it is well known that the ANC has a fairly stable electorate, which would rather not come to the ballot box at all than vote for another party, unless, of course, it is a party that broke away from the ANC itself. Turnout in 2024 actually dropped to 59% compared to 66% in 2019, but such an electoral failure cannot be explained by voter absenteeism alone. The main threats to the ANC still come from itself: it is internal party splits that provoke the largest outflow of voters."

The electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC) will look into the causes of historically low voter turnout in polls held in 2024, Deputy Chief Electoral Officer of the body Masego Sheburi told local media outlet EWN.

Sheburi argued that one of the possible reasons for such low electoral involvement of the population could be a new law that was enacted just for these parliamentary elections, which stated that voters could only cast their ballots at the polling station where they were registered. As a result, many voters were turned away at polling stations.

"It could have been a contributing factor, but as I said, we have to look at the evidence and understand what drove voter behavior to be the manner it did," Sheburi said.

The elections' turnout was 58.64%, with a little over 16 million of the 27.7 million registered voters casting ballots.

🔸🇿🇦 The Inevitable Decline of the ANC: How the Elections in South Africa Unfolded

On May 29, general elections were held in the Republic of South Africa. In addition to the ruling African National Congress (ANC) party, which has been in power for 30 years, 51 other parties participated.

According to the election results, the ANC, led by the current president Cyril Ramaphosa, lost its parliamentary majority for the first time since the end of apartheid and is now forced to form a coalition to maintain power.

The expected decline in the ruling party's ratings will be an important milestone in the history of the Republic of South Africa. This marks the beginning of new political processes, the consequences of which will become visible in the coming years.

📰🔸🗳🔻🖋🔸🔮🔻🗞

Notwithstanding the really pitiful reporting that accompanied these elections, I hope you can see the similarities in those above. Almost identical except for turnout. I believe none of that is accidental or coincidental. These guys have roles; they’re quite good at them. Their enemies have roles, too. Who evidently didn’t have time to shave perceptions effectively on these overlapping elections. But it’s what is missing that tells the tale - zero reaction from the West. Almost as if they’d just prefer to not think about it.

If these outcomes were planned all along (very possible), I expect to see expositions in unity of one populace (likely India) and the fracturing of the other (South Africa). Could be a surprise reversal in store - but Awakenings don’t happen on their own. The scenes to come will give us those clues.

🔸🇲🇽 About the presidential election in Mexico

This Sunday in Mexico, according to local experts, the largest elections in its history were held - more than 98 million people participated, and the positions of president, 500 deputies, 128 senators and the governments of nine states were at stake.

The attention of the world community is naturally focused on the election of a new president - who, it can now be said with certainty, for the first time in 200 years will be a woman, the 61-year-old Claudia Sheinbaum, the former mayor of Mexico City and the candidate from the ruling MORENA party.

As colleagues write, Sheinbaum has every reason to expect serious support from the majority in both houses of parliament, and her victory was announced by the current President of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador - it is no coincidence that Ms. Sheinbaum is called his protégé.

In connection with the latter circumstance, many are wondering - how much will Mexico's foreign and domestic policy change under the new leader? Sheinbaum herself promises to continue and expand the horizons set by Obrador. Here, of course, there are certain nuances, but:

▪️Sheinbaum became mayor of Mexico City in parallel with Obrador's occupation of the presidency in 2018, she has been working in his team since about 2000, in connection with which some experts several years ago predicted a guaranteed presidential seat for her.

▪️As for Sheinbaum's origin and resume - at least for Western structures, everything is smooth - here are Jewish and European roots, skillful handling of the "women's issue" and other liberal theses, a systematic and careful coming to power, a certain scientific fame among supporters of the "green agenda" and in the energy sector.

Based on this, we can roughly understand in what directions state transformations may be started or continued.

▪️The Western media are actively associating Sheinbaum with Obrador - and there is a certain kind of trick here: after all, quite recently these same media helped to circulate information that Obrador and his team are connected with drug cartels.

So if Sheinbaum decides to deviate from a certain course in Mexican-American relations, Obrador's sins will be quietly assigned to her as well.

▪️Thus, one should not expect any sharp change of paradigm in the pro-government circles of Mexico.

🔻Some experts note that Sheinbaum will behave more cautiously than Obrador, who periodically made statements against the US authorities.

We, however, want to note that Obrador became bolder only under Biden and the failure of his migration policy, during the Trump period all the daring statements he made were exclusively within the Mexican lands.

Given the course towards strengthening the positions of Republican politicians in the United States, Sheinbaum may well take the example of her patron in the Trump era.

🔸Fwd from @None
Our sources in Mexico note that the future president Sheinbaum tried to gain popularity in the elections not only with the overwhelming support of the team of the current president Obrador, the ruling Morena party and a coalition of friendly political movements.

The former mayor of Mexico City also plans to tackle the issue of combating organized crime. The course is predictable for the Latin American voter, as are its consequences: everyone is already preparing for a reshuffle of the Mexican power apparatus, both federal and regional.

Given that the recent elections were marked by a record wave of political killings in the provinces, many can be arrested for negligence and manipulation.

Operatives (most often used both in the war on cartels and to assist cartels) will, as is often the case, remain untouched. They are just too valuable. But the heads of law enforcement agencies in cities and states will be less lucky.

As you understand, this will hardly affect the overall level of crime in Mexico.

❗️ The violence hasn't stopped even as the campaigns drew to an official close; two mayoral candidates were murdered this week, one on Tuesday and another on Wednesday.

📈 There have been 339 aggressions towards political candidates in 2024, which includes threats, murders, kidnappings, attempted murders, armed attacks and disappearances.

🪖 President Andrés Manuel López Obrador assured the public in a May 21 morning press conference that 3,000 military troops are protecting at least 500 candidates across the country.

🌹 However, Claudia Sheinbaum, the presidential front-runner, said she would continue López Obrador's "hugs, not bullets" policy, and Xóchitl Gálvez, her closest opponent, blamed the level of insecurity on this policy, calling Sheinbaum the "narco-candidate." ↩t.me/tupireport🔸

WHO: 'First-ever human death of bird flu strain H5N2 confirmed in Mexico'— Article ↩t.me/TheConspiracyHole🔸

🇲🇽🦠🐔 — WHO confirms first-ever fatal human case of avian influenza A(H5N2) in Mexico. The patient who died from bird flu, a 59-year-old, had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals. ↩t.me/tupireport🔸

🔸But of course the first person "to die of H5N2" didn't die of H5N2 but rather with H5N2.

The patient's relatives said the person had underlying conditions and they had been bedridden for three weeks for other reasons prior to contracting bird flu, the WHO said. On Wednesday night, Mexico's Health Ministry said the patient had "a history of chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes [and] long-term systemic arterial hypertension."

Up to their old tricks.

And that is even assuming we trust the test for H5N2.
Which we do not.

📝 🇺🇸 🇲🇽 While Biden's border security measure is not likely to effectively curb illegal immigration, it comes after Claudia Sheinbaum won the Presidential Election in Mexico.

🔶️ The Biden administration likely has no faith in the future government of Mexico to prevent terrorism from crossing the border and impacting US infrastructure along with key facilities.

🔶️ US mainstream media recently spun a campaign on foreign bad actors crossing the border in order to trespass on US military bases while conducting espionage actions. ↩t.me/CIG_telegram🔸

🇲🇽 Mexico’s incoming administration pledges to reduce budget deficit as markets recover from shock

Mexico’s treasury secretary pledged Tuesday to bring down the federal budget deficits in coming years, after the country suffered a partial meltdown in the currency and stock markets.

Finance Minister Rogelio Ramírez said the federal deficit will be cut from this year’s level of almost 6% of gross domestic product, to around 3% in coming years.

The statement was an effort to calm markets after the Mexican peso dropped more than 4% on Monday against the U.S. dollar, and the Mexican stock exchange slid 6%.

🇲🇽⚠️🗳 — Although the National Electoral Institute (INE) of Mexico has already ruled out the possibility of fraud and announced that it will recount 60% of the ballots in the district counts, Xóchitl Gálvez announced that she will request a vote-by-vote recount

⁉️ According to the video published by Xóchitl, who sought the presidency with the coalition of PAN, PRI, and PRD, there are some inconsistencies between the tally sheets and the Preliminary Electoral Results Program (PREP).

❗️ In her video, Xóchitl asserted that the President of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, intervened in the electoral process, which is why she initiated a legal process seeking to “clarify the vote of all Mexicans and reveal everything that occurred in the elections.”

"Rest assured that the recount in each of the 300 electoral districts is ready to ensure that your vote counts; for now, we are requesting a vote-by-vote review in 80% of the polling stations."

Well, it seems like no election is now safe from being narrative repetition of previous ones. This one definitely hit a trifecta - it might have nudged a pick six. One thing I believe we can be certain of - the drama has only just begun.

The narratives are being tossed in the air to land on a floor covered in blenders with funnels for catching them all. Can't let any of them escape. Mix, chop, blend, or puree, we will taste them again. Part 2 out later this afternoon or in the morning!
