Missing Mexican state on the "Search by Place" option on search page

After starting to type in "Mexico" in the search box, the various states of Mexico pop up-- except for Michoacán, which is missing from the list. This is on the https://www.familysearch.org/search/ page. I just wanted to report this issue in the hopes it can be added.

Also, Michoacán is also missing on the https://www.familysearch.org/search/location/list page after you click Mexico on the map.

    @Rosalinda Ruiz Thank you for pointing out the missing state for Mexico on the search by place option. We have notified the engineers of the omission. We cannot predict how long it might take for a correction to be in place. Meanwhile, here are 2 other ways for you to find records from Michoacán:

    From the Record Search page (https://www.familysearch.org/search/), find the Find a Collection search box. Enter Michoacán and the system finds 2 record collections for you: Catholic Church records and civil registration records. You can click a title to search these collections.

    Go to the catalog (https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog) and enter Mexico, Michoacán in the place field. Click Search and you will get a list of entries to explore.

    How do I get someone to acknowledge this issue? I notice my concern has not even been acknowledged.
