Ana Lilia Rivera leads polls for Morena governorship in Tlaxcala

Ana Lilia Rivera, a former senator, leads the preferences for the Morena party's candidacy for the governorship of Tlaxcala, according to recent polling data. A measurement by Rubrum conducted on August 22, 2026, shows Rivera at 46 percent, maintaining a 15.5 percentage point lead over second-place candidate Alfonso Sánchez, who holds 30.5 percent.

An aggregate review of seven different polls conducted in August indicates that Rivera appears in the lead in five of them, including reports from Impronte, La Encuesta MX, La Crónica, and IQ Comunicación. While two of the seven measurements favor Alfonso Sánchez García, Rivera remains the most frequently cited frontrunner as the party approaches its final candidate definitions.
