On Wednesday, June 17, 2026, Morena, along with its allies the Labor Party (PT) and the Green Ecologist Party (PVEM), set the framework for selecting their state coordinators—potential candidates for the 2027 midterm elections. This agreement marks a strategic move to strengthen their political alliance ahead of next year’s crucial vote.

Citlalli Hernández, president of Morena’s election commission, announced that the official call for candidates begins today, June 17, emphasizing that citizen participation remains the top priority. The registration of aspirants will take place at the World Trade Center in Mexico City from June 22 to June 27.

Karen Castrejón, national leader of the Green Party, highlighted the shared vision with Morena, their largest ally, and reaffirmed their commitment to advancing environmental agendas within the coalition. She stressed the importance of maintaining unity despite internal differences, focusing on the well-being of Mexicans and political maturity.

Key points from the coalition’s plan include:

– Candidates must commit to informative tasks such as organizing assemblies defending national sovereignty.
– Promoting the achievements of the current political movement.
– Combating misinformation, a challenge that remains central to their strategy.

Ariadna Montiel, Morena’s national leader, underscored the responsibility to win the 2027 elections to protect the projects led by President Claudia Sheinbaum. She emphasized grassroots work—house-to-house outreach and territorial organization—as essential tools to counter disinformation and secure voter trust.

Alberto Anaya, PT’s national leader, expressed confidence in selecting the best male and female candidates who will support the ongoing transformation initiated by former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and President Sheinbaum. He also mentioned efforts to build alliances with entrepreneurs, organizations, and farmers, reinforcing a united front to defend Mexico’s sovereignty.

This coalition’s transparent and collaborative approach reflects a broader commitment to social inclusion and political renewal, aiming to continue advancing policies that benefit the most vulnerable communities in Mexico. For migrants and diverse communities following Mexican politics from abroad, these developments signal a sustained push for progressive change in the country’s political landscape.
