This greater significance stems from the very definition of a democratic state, which must be based on the rule of law. Thus, the core of this paper focuses on the right of access to electoral justice by presenting emblematic cases brought to the Superior Electoral Court of the Federal Judicial Branch. In these cases, the court facilitated, and even expanded, the conditions for admissibility in the system of challenges for electoral matters. As a consequence, the court effectively increased access to electoral justice to a greater number of plaintiffs in electoral law procedures. The author concludes by outlining three proposals aimed at improving the protection of citizens’ political and electoral rights.Si el derecho fundamental de acceso a la justicia tiene especial relevancia personal y social, su trascendencia en el contexto del derecho electoral asume particular relevancia porque resulta consustancial al concepto de Estado democrático que necesariamente es y debe ser de derecho. Por ende, en su parte medular, el presente texto se centra en el derecho de acceso a la justicia electoral, presentando algunos casos emblemáticos en donde la Sala Superior del Tribunal Electoral del Poder Judicial de la Federación ha facilitado, e inclusive ampliado, las hipótesis de procedibilidad de los medios de impugnación y, en consecuencia, el acceso a la justicia para el mayor número de sujetos de derecho electoral. En la parte final del texto, el autor esboza tres propuestas dirigidas a perfeccionar el sistema integral de defensa de los derechos político-electorales de los ciudadanos.Instituto de Investigaciones Jurídicas2012-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.juridicas.unam.mx/index.php/derecho-electoral/article/view/995110.22201/iij.24487910e.2012.1.9951Revista Mexicana de Derecho Electoral; Número 1Revista Mexicana de Derecho Electoral; Número 12448-791010.22201/iij.24487910e.2012.1reponame:Revista Mexicana de Derecho Electoralinstname:UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL AUTÓNOMA DE MÉXICOinstacron:UNAMspahttps://revistas.juridicas.unam.mx/index.php/derecho-electoral/article/view/9951/11979Derechos de autor 2016 Revista de Derecho Electoralinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/99512024-08-16T19:58:21Z
