Abstract
The construction of a plural democracy with the inclusion of indigenous people in conditions of equality has great challenges, because although affirmative actions in electoral matters have made significant progress, the distance between the norms and their compliance is enormous. Electoral equity is still a pending issue, initially because there is resistance from political parties and political actors to pluralize power. The main problem is not solved only in terms of legal technique, that is, to fine-tune the mechanisms of implementation and control of affirmative actions, it is a complex situation that has its roots in a culture where racism in the face of diversity Ethnicity is in force and corruption is its main obstacle. This is clearly expressed in the results of the electoral contests to elect Federal Deputies in the Indigenous Districts for the LXIV (2018-2021) and LXV (2021-2024) legislatures.
