The selection process for the candidate for the Presidency of the Republic in Morena will be by survey, insisted the leader Mario Delgado. In a conference to report that no later than August 10 to come, the candidate for governor for the state of Mexico will be known, he stated that there should be no conditions in the internal processes of that political organization.
At a time when the polls organized by his party for the selection of candidates are questioned, the man from Colima argued that no one can suggest any other type
selection mechanism, no one can be above a historical process, we follow an extraordinary leader like Andrés Manuel López Obrador
.
He also criticized the criticism given within his party, because it is in the statutes of Morena that it is not worth criticizing the movement for how generous it is. We are a plural movement. I have pointed it out over and over again; the survey is not just a selection method, it goes much deeper than that. It is the way to guarantee that the people decide
.
In his press conference on Monday, he announced that today a working meeting will be held between the candidates for the coordination of the 4T Defense Committees in the state of Mexico and the national leadership of Morena, in order to give them know the guidelines of the survey and, in turn, the interested parties ratify their intention to participate.
From the private event organized by Senator Ricardo Monreal, the Morenista said that the Zacatecan “is within his rights and the statutes – he replied – are very clear that the election of candidates must be by certain consensus or survey.”
He explained that 27 thousand 48 applicants to be congressmen have registered and in the state of Mexico 67 applicants to the candidacy for the government of that entity were registered.
Regarding the process to select the members of the ordinary National Congress to be held on September 17 and 18, he explained that the number established by the call is 200 names of men per district and 200 names of women who aspire per district, but as the promise does not impoverish, if it is necessary that there be more than 200 names per district, the lawyers tell me that the call would not be violated, if we have to go to 400 names for men and 400 for women, we go to 400. That is, we do not seek to eliminate no one, on the contrary, we want to make a transparent process, that integrates us, that everyone has the right to be leaders
