11 November 1926
Posadas Ocampo was born on November 10, 1926, not November 11, 1926.
Full reasoning
Credible biographical sources identify Cardinal Juan Jesús Posadas Ocampo's birth date as 10 November 1926. The Arquidiócesis de Tijuana states: "Nació en Salvatierra, Guanajuato, el 10 de noviembre de 1926," and Catholic-Hierarchy likewise lists his birth as "10 Nov 1926." That directly contradicts the article's lead, which says "11 November 1926."
This is also notable because the same page's infobox already gives 10 November 1926, so the lead appears to contain a one-day date error.

Mexico's 90-year long government of the Institutional Revolutionary Party
The PRI did not govern Mexico for 90 years. Its uninterrupted rule lasted from 1929 to 2000 — 71 years.
Full reasoning
This overstates the length of the PRI's rule by nearly two decades. Credible reference sources describe the PRI as governing Mexico without interruption from 1929 until 2000, an uninterrupted period of 71 years, not 90.
The Wilson Center explains that the PRI governed Mexico "from 1929 until 2000" and explicitly calls this "the PRI's 71 years of uninterrupted rule." EBSCO's research summary likewise says that "for a period of seventy-one years, the PRI ruled the country."
The PRI later returned to the presidency in 2012, but that does not make its earlier rule a single continuous "90-year long government," and in any case it still would not amount to 90 years of uninterrupted national government.
