The record since

The call stands as issued — no revisions.

What would overturn it

A confirmed return to office by Rocha Moya before October 22, 2026 would overturn this; a formal, sustained interim-governor arrangement through that date would confirm it.

The verdict

Non liquet  Resolved 26 Oct 26.

Interim governor was elected Aug 25 and no return was reported before Oct 22, but the evidence is absence of reports.

Status-persistence calls rest on absence of news; hard to confirm.

As logged at issue

Sinaloa's Congress is likely to keep Governor Rocha Moya out of office for at least 60 days this time, given Sheinbaum's public rebuke -- a quick third return, as happened in May, would be the signal his political shielding is still intact.
