The Office of the Prosecutor Specialized in Electoral Crimes (Fisel) opened investigation kits against the head of government Claudia Sheinbaum and the Secretary of the Interior Adán Augusto López for allegedly violating the Electoral Law prior to the revocation of the mandate.

After receiving 17 complaints before and after the exercise, the prosecutor's office decided to initiate investigations for requesting support from the population for the popular consultation. On April 2, the Minister of the Interior promoted the president's consultation at an event in Sonora where he stated that he was not afraid of possible sanctions from the National Electoral Institute.
