Morena consolidated itself as the main political force in Mexico after expanding the governorships under its Administration since the 2018 general elections, when President Andrés Manuel López Obrador arrived at the National Palace. Since its national registration, in 2014 and AMLO’s victory in the 2018 presidential elections, the guinda party currently holds 24 governorships out of 32.
The political movement will be renewed with the change of Government, it has achieved victories in strongholds of the opposition, increasingly weakened after last Sunday’s results.
Yucatán is Morena’s new political victory, which was not limited to the governorship.
According to figures from the Preliminary Results Program (PREP), the victory of the Morena candidates and their allies, PT and PVEM, was emerging in 15 local districts; while the PAN, PRI and Nueva Alianza won only in 6 districts, so Morena will have a majority in the next local legislature.
The official designation of the “pluris” deputies will still be missing; It is worth remembering that, starting with the next Yucatecan legislature, there will be 35 local deputies instead of 25 for the first time.
As for the city councils, until yesterday afternoon, the PAN and its allies (PRI and Nueva Alianza) achieved victory in 37 municipalities; Meanwhile, Morena and its allies (PT and PVEM) obtained the presidencies in 33 municipalities, but 36 were still to be defined.
Currently the strongholds of National Action remain in Aguascalientes, Chihuahua, Guanajuato and Querétaro, while the Institutional Revolutionary is located in Coahuila and Durango.
It should be noted that the country’s former hegemonic party has been the big loser in the change of colors in the country. Citizen Movement governs in Nuevo León and Jalisco, its strongest bastion, while the Ecologist Green, considered an ally of Morena in the federal , governs San Luis Potosí.
The blows for the opposition are not only limited to the defeats in the local elections.
In the case of the tricolor party, a former hegemonic party that ruled for 70 years in Tabasco and from which figures such as President Andrés Manuel López Obrador emerged, or the former presidential candidates, Adán Augusto López and Roberto Madrazo, it disappears in this entity.
After this Sunday’s elections, in which the candidate of the alliance of Morena, PT and PVEM, Javier May Rodríguez, swept the polls by obtaining 776,220 votes, the PRI turned out to be the big loser, being reduced to a sixth force electoral. He barely managed to maintain the record, with 24 thousand 23 votes obtained by his gubernatorial candidate Lorena Beaurregard de los Santos. Until 2012 the PRI had maintained the majority of the mayoralties and absolute control of the local Congress, however, it was in that election when its debacle began, losing hegemony first with the PRD and then with Morena in 2018, reaching 2024 almost on the verge of extinction.
According to the preliminary results of this Sunday’s elections, and with 99% of the tallies counted, Morena won in 7 mayoralties, including Centro, the state capital, Huimanguillo, Cunduacán, Centla, Macuspana, Jonuta and Teapa. It should be noted that Mexico also has 13 female governors.
After the June 2 elections, Guanajuato and Morelos will be governed for the first time by a woman. With them, plus the victory of Rocío Nahle García in Veracruz, in total there will be 13 female governors in the country, as they will join Marina del Pilar Ávila (Morena) in Baja California, Layda Sansores (Morena) in Campeche, Índira Vizcaíno (Morena) in Colima, María Eugenia Campos Galván (PAN) in Chihuahua, Evelyn Salgado Pineda (Morena) in Guerrero, Lorena Cuellar (Morena) in Tlaxcala , Teresa Jiménez (PAN) in Aguascalientes, Mara Lezama (Morena) in Quintana Roo, Delfina Gómez (Morena) in Estado México and the virtual victory of Clara Brugada (Morena) in Mexico City.
