General elections were held in Mexico on 4 July 1982.[1] The presidential elections were won by Miguel de la Madrid, who received 74% of the vote. In the Chamber of Deputies election, the Institutional Revolutionary Party won 299 of the 372 seats,[2] as well as winning 63 of the 64 seats in the Senate election.[3] Voter turnout was 75% in the presidential election and 73% and 66% for the two parts of the Chamber elections.[4]
Rosario Ibarra, who was nominated as a presidential candidate by the Revolutionary Workers' Party, was the first woman ever to run for president in a Mexican election.
These would be the last of the symbolic/non-competitive presidential elections in which the PRI (in power since 1929) and its presidential candidate faced no serious opposition and won by a huge margin.
