The Electoral Supreme Court has confirmed that no direct donations to political campaigns were found in recent elections, although indirect contributions create visibility gaps. This highlights a critical challenge for open data: without mandatory disclosure of organizational leadership, financial transparency remains incomplete, leaving the public unable to trace potential conflicts of interest. The institution emphasizes that current laws prohibit NGOs from funding political campaigns, yet the lack of open data on these entities hinders verification. Consequently, greater transparency is essential to prevent money laundering and ensure accountability, reinforcing the need for accessible, detailed datasets regarding political financing and institutional affiliations. Additionally, the Court plans to establish an internal unit to combat disinformation. While rejecting external censorship, this move underscores the importance of internal data monitoring. Ultimately, robust open data frameworks are vital to bridge these transparency gaps, allowing citizens to effectively scrutinize political influence and electoral integrity.
