For the first one, the Minister of Defense was Juan Arevalo Gardoqui. He was profoundly corrupt, but the character Mister X amalgamates several figures. Particularly, when the election system crashes the person in charge is Manuel Bartlett Diaz, who, amazingly is still around having experienced a come to Jesus moment and working with the current Mexican President (who, in theory, hails from the left and won on the promise of fighting corruption) as Director of the national electric company. Still corrupt, as you can guess.
The bleeped out candidate is pretty clear cut, it's Carlos Salinas de Gortari. The actor is a dead ringer for the man so I don't understand what was gained by bleeping out the name unless, as stated, the bleeping comes from the tapes and reflects that.
