Mirsa Juárez Maldonado has stepped down as the state leader of Mexico's ruling MORENA party in Morelos to run for mayor of Jojutla. She stated she is leaving with clean hands and believes the candidacy race will be fair. Her departure had been anticipated for weeks, and her colleagues reportedly supported the decision, citing her inability to unify the party or control the political institute and candidates who began campaigning five months ago. During her tenure, Juárez emphasized achievements such as registering nearly 200,000 members, forming 945 local committees, and opening a new state headquarters. She will be replaced by Martha Patricia García Garnica, who currently serves as secretary general and will assume leadership responsibilities. García pledged to strengthen MORENA ahead of the 2027 elections, which will see the selection of 33 mayors, 12 majority deputies, and eight proportional representation deputies.
