Where Mexico’s 2024 presidential internet votes from abroad were registered

Internet voting made up about two thirds of the overseas total

INE counted 184,326 presidential votes from abroad, including 122,497 online, 39,586 by post and 22,243 in person. Those three methods add to the total. The residence table describes the online group, which accounted for about 66.5% of overseas presidential ballots. Source 2 Source 1

The United States accounted for a majority of internet votes

The 71,760 internet votes associated with US residents were about 58.6% of the overseas internet total. Canada accounted for 11,798, and Spain for 8,793. These are counts of recorded ballots in each residence group. A participation rate would require a compatible count of eligible voters in each place. Source 1

Consular voting also included eligible people without advance registration

INE reported 6,314 in-person votes from people with advance registration and 15,929 from people without it, across 23 consular sites. Those votes fall into the in-person total. Keep the method breakdown separate from the online residence breakdown when comparing their reach. Source 2 Source 1

The historical comparison includes different voting arrangements

INE reports 98,470 presidential votes from abroad in 2018, compared with 184,326 in 2024. The 2024 total includes three channels. INE also records that the first overseas presidential vote in 2006 was postal only. Comparing totals across years is useful as a count, while a comparison of participation rates needs to account for the available channels and who could use them. Source 2 Source 1
