In a significant political move, the leaderships of Morena, the Party of the Green Ecology of Mexico (PVEM), and the Labor Party (PT) have unveiled a joint calendar for registering candidates aiming to lead state-level coordination committees under the Fourth Transformation initiative. This process marks a crucial step in preparing for the 2027 elections, where these three parties will compete for 17 state governorships. The registration period begins on June 22 and ends on June 27, with all interested individuals required to register according to their designated days. The registration is conducted in person at the World Trade Center in Mexico City.
During a press conference, Citlalli Hernández, president of Morena’s National Election Commission, emphasized that none of the potential alliances for state candidacies have been finalized yet. The decision was made to first allow the registration of candidates collectively before determining whether they would support the selected candidate based on a survey. Hernández stated that each party maintains separate processes for selecting candidates but has agreed to conduct the registration jointly and carry out surveys.
Alberto Anaya, national president of the PT, confirmed that his party will support Morena in the 17 state candidatures chosen through this process. He expressed a desire to avoid any fractures and emphasized the importance of moving forward together in coalitions for both the 17 state governments and federal districts. Arturo Escobar, coordinator of alliances for the PVEM, clarified that the party does not require current officeholders to resign nor does it have statutory rules against nepotism in candidacies. However, he acknowledged participation in Morena's registration process, aiming to field strong profiles for each state, including one man and one woman.
The requirements for aspiring candidates include dedicating themselves full-time to state coordination tasks, which would necessitate resigning from their current positions. Other stipulations involve avoiding the use of public funds or excessive personal expenses, refraining from attacking other candidates, and ensuring no familial ties with the current governor in the case of Morena. The registration schedule specifies that candidates for the states of Aguascalientes, Baja California, Baja California Sur, and Campeche must register on June 22.
The process also involves a series of steps leading up to the 2027 elections, with specific dates set for the registration of candidates in different states. These dates are part of a broader strategy aimed at strengthening the coalition between the three parties and ensuring a unified approach towards the upcoming electoral cycle.
Claudia Sheinbaum, the president of Mexico, declined to comment on the political plans and alliance between Morena, PVEM, and PT, stating that such decisions belong to the party leaderships. The national president of Morena, Ariadna Montiel Reyes, indicated that a comprehensive political plan toward the 2027 elections would be presented. She also mentioned that the call for candidate registration would be issued later in the week, following requests for leave from senators and deputies who aim to run for office.
The election date for the 17 state governorships is set for June 6, 2027, along with the selection of the Chamber of Deputies and the congresses of 31 states, excluding Coahuila, which had its elections earlier this month. Additionally, the 16 mayoral positions in Mexico City will be decided during this period.
Manuel Zavala has been appointed as the secretary of Organization within Morena, tasked with overseeing preparations for the 2027 elections. Meanwhile, the PVEM has shown interest in forming alliances with Morena and PT, although they remain open to running independently if necessary. Jesús Sesma, the PVEM's general secretary, highlighted the party's efforts to strengthen its internal structure and identify key issues faced by citizens in their municipalities.
The PT, represented by Ernesto Villarreal, is focusing on appointing political leaders in each municipality and district to build a robust electoral structure. The coalition among the three parties aims to ensure a cohesive strategy while respecting each party's autonomy and individuality.
In Guerrero, several prominent figures have registered as candidates for the state governorship, including Esthela Damián Peralta, a former legal advisor to President Claudia Sheinbaum, and Karen Castrejón Trujillo, a senator and vice-coordinator of the PVEM. Their involvement underscores the competitive nature of the race for state governorships and highlights the significance of the upcoming electoral process.
