Jorge Romero is shaping up to lead the PAN

Jorge Romero is shaping up to lead the PAN

According to data from the National Organizing Commission for the Election of the National Executive Committee of the PAN (CONECEN), the election day passed “with order and normality” and approximately 45% of the militants participated.

If Jorge Romero wins the leadership, his entire roster also reaches the CEN, which is made up of Eduardo Rivera, Santiago Taboada, Renán Barrera Concha, Josué David Guerrero, Amparo Lilia Olivares, Saraí Macías Alicea, Romina Contreras and Michel González Márquez.

According to the PAN statutes, the slate that will win is the one that obtains the absolute majority of the votes cast or 37%, with a difference of at least five percentage points between first and second place. If no ballot achieves the results, a second round will be held.

This election occurs in the midst of confrontations between the PAN members over the 2024 electoral results, since in the last six years the party lost the governorship of seven states, decreased its militancy by 26% and reduced its number of legislators in the Congress of the Union.

In the last six years, the number of activists was reduced from 378,838 in 2017 to 277,665 in 2023. Also in this period the number of legislators decreased: in 2018 it managed to obtain 104 deputies and senators and in 2024 it reached 94.

We are going to win elections, Romero advances

Before CONECEN announced the electoral results, Jorge Romero assured that he won the internal elections, so he will be the next leader of the PAN for the next three years.

“It is our CONECEN who must formalize the results of the election and of course we are waiting, but we can say without fear of being wrong that we won the national leadership. Yes, it was possible,” he said in a message in a CDMX hotel.

The federal deputy also invited his opponent Adriana Dávila to be part of his leadership, as he recognized her work as a PAN member, “because she gave all her effort”: “The PAN needs her.”

Romero pointed out that the PAN’s main goal for the 2027 elections will be to retain what they have won and recover what they have lost, since in the last six years the party stopped governing seven states.

“We come to win elections. There will be no primary goal for the PAN other than the federal elections of 2027. We are going to retain what we govern today, I assure you that we will retain it. We are going to recover what we lost in this last election and we will to remove the artificial numbers that the 4T gave itself in Congress and that the people did not give,” he said.

He also offered an apology to the PAN members who stopped trusting the party and promised to build the party as an “authentic alternative” in the country.

“To all the people who have trusted the PAN, who trust or even who have stopped trusting the PAN. Today we want that for everything that you believe has been a mistake or that you believe that we could have done better, we offer a public apology with all our honor, as when a human being recognizes that he can improve,” he declared.

He also asked the PAN members for unity, but, he specified, that it must be a unity not around a person or a leadership, but around the causes and goals of the party.

“In the PAN we will have to renew ourselves, we will preserve what works but we will have to renew the party like never before,” he emphasized.
