Mexico’s ruling party Morena will gain control of the Supreme Court following the country’s first-ever judicial elections, which were marred by low voter turnout and allegations of a power grab.

The Morena party controls most of Mexico’s government. Its sway over the Supreme Court is set to increase after a judicial election that raised fears about democracy.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum called her country's judicial election 'extraordinary,' despite turnout of less than 13%. Mexico becomes the first country on Earth to elect all its judges, from state level to the Supreme Court.
