Given the reports that the alliance with the Labor (PT) and Green Ecologist of Mexico (PVEM) parties could be broken in the elections of various states, the national leadership of Morena called to maintain the coalition throughout the country, since it is this resource that has allowed the majority bloc to reform the Magna Carta.
At a press conference in Baja California Sur, and in response to a question about possible divisions with its allies, the presidency of the Guinda party stressed that its intention is to maintain the pact with the Petistas and the Greens.
“Thanks to that alliance, which is confirmed in Congress every day in the approval of laws, we have been able to reform the Constitution. That is why we have had two thirds (of Congress), due to the alliance with PT and PVEM, and, then, we became stronger,” stressed the Morenista leadership.
The majority party stressed that this coalition not only has a pragmatic purpose, “as PRI and PAN do, like these pacts that were made in Coahuila and are translated throughout the country, where everything is shared. We make alliances by projects: the country’s project is what unites us and has given us the possibility of legislative reforms,” he indicated.
In that sense, he emphasized: “it is important to maintain alliances and we will have to touch on it at the time, but once and for all we announce that we would like that in 2027, in Baja California Sur and throughout the country, we can go together.”

He stressed that “the best method to select candidates is the survey, and we are going to continue fighting for them, because we believe that it generates unity and a level playing field.” An example of this, he stressed, is that in this way the current president Claudia Sheinbaum was selected as the presidential standard bearer of the cherries.
As reported in this newspaper, the coordinator of the PT bench in the Chamber of Deputies, Reginaldo Sandoval Flores, called on Morena not to put the alliance candidacies in the states at risk, since in this way the coalition would weaken and run the risk of losing the qualified majority in Congress, as happened in 2021.
They deny Maduro sponsorship in elections
It is false that the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, financed political campaigns in Mexico, President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo said yesterday.
In her press conference of the day, she responded to the accusation that Marshall Billingslea, former Undersecretary for Terrorist Financing of the United States, made about this a few days ago, pointed out: “it is false… in any case, that it is investigated, but it has no basis,” said the president.
