Is it impossible to make a cross party vote? meaning, for example, is it possible to vote the candidate for senator for one party and and also vote for a mayor of another party, in the same election

from what i understand you cant since you have to choose a ballot of a party to vote

and also is there an independent ballot if you dont want to be part of any party?

You vote for the people you want. The mayor, the regidores, the diputado and the senator. Some people vote for the party and some for the people. Most vote by colour or by photos as a lot cannot read!!!

it is very complicated. You can vote for senator you want and also for diputados that you want. But I think they have to be from same party or alliados. They will shortly be publishing the educational boletin and i will post link when it is published.

Take kids/adults to the zoo, or the museum and have them read the descriptions outloud. you might change your mind somewhat. yes most can read but not at the speed and level that you would expect.
