Abstract

The state of Querétaro has three electoral alternations (1997, 2009, 2015) which could show abroad a political plurality and electoral maturity. Based on the above, it can be argued that contradictory political practices prevail in the press and, in spaces for deliberation, show continuities typical of the authoritarian political regime. Beyond the new regulatory frameworks in electronic media, in the daily press the agreements and advertising agreements emphasized in electoral processes continue.
The present work has the purpose of showing an approach to the informative coverage during the electoral process of 2015 in the state of Querétaro. Based on the speeches presented in the daily press of the state capital, it is intended to put into perspective how the public sphere is configured in a context of electoral alternation.
