The sources give Sheinbaum's 2015 Tlalpan vote share as 29.48%, which is below 30%, so the claim holds. The figure comes only from unrated sources, and the two that state it likely share one origin, so confidence is capped.
What we found
Supports. Wikipedia's Tlalpan section states Sheinbaum won the 2015 borough election with 29.48% of the vote.[2]
Supports. A timeline source repeats the same 29.48% figure for the 2015 Tlalpan mayoral result, but it appears to echo the same underlying figure rather than independently confirm it.[3]
Context. Tier1 sources confirm Sheinbaum was elected mayor of Tlalpan in 2015 but do not give her vote share.[1][4][5]
Context. The claim's wording matches the post's passage ('not quite 30%' in Tlalpan in 2015), so the extraction does not add to what the post said.
