Mexico 's ruling party overhauled the court system late last year fueling protests and criticism.

Voters will choose between some 7,700 candidates vying for more than 2,600 judicial positions.

Critics say the reform is an attempt by those in power to seize on their popularity to gain control of the branch of government.

Voters have been plagued by confusion over a voting process that has been hastily thrown together.
