Election Day on June 1, Not Considered a Holiday

Next Sunday, June 1, 2025, an extraordinary election day will be held for the election of judges, magistrates and ministers of the Judicial Power of the Federation.

Article 96 of the Constitution establishes that judicial elections must coincide with ordinary federal elections, which does not apply in this case, since there are no ordinary federal elections in 2025 (the next ones will be in 2027).

On this regard, article 23 of the General Law of Electoral Institutions and Procedures (LGIPE) defines extraordinary elections as those that are called outside the regular calendar due to exceptional causes.

The National Electoral Institute (INE), by means of Agreement INE/CG2358/2024, has classified this day as an Extraordinary Electoral Process, derived from the recent constitutional reform that establishes the election by popular vote of judges, magistrates and ministers of the Judicial Power of the Federation.

This classification is relevant because, according to article 74, section IX of the Federal Labor Law (LFT), only ordinary electoral processes are considered a cause for mandatory rest.

Since this election does not correspond to an ordinary process, the legal assumptions for it to be considered a holiday are not met.

Therefore, since no official provision has been released stating other status, Sunday, June 1, 2025, should be considered a normal working day in all sectors.
