The Morena party is finalizing the appointment of coordinators for the Defense of the Fourth Transformation (4T) and National Sovereignty committees across various Mexican states. In Sinaloa, Imelda Castro has been named coordinator, where she aims to organize party structures and promote the achievements of the federal government. In Baja California Sur, Milena Quiroga, the former mayor of La Paz, is a leading candidate for the coordination, noting a decrease in political attacks during the process.

In Querétaro, Santiago Nieto Castillo has been designated as the coordinator, prompting calls from local deputies for party unity to avoid internal fractures. Meanwhile, in Tlaxcala, Senator Ana Lilia Rivera has called for unity and the abandonment of political divisions to strengthen the movement.

In Sonora, Javier Lamarque is campaigning for a coordination role, emphasizing the need for economic development and employment in rural and southern regions. He has also addressed local concerns regarding infrastructure and water supply. Some critics have raised concerns regarding Morena's methodology, specifically the use of telephone surveys to filter candidates in states with high numbers of aspirants, arguing it may exclude rural and low-income populations.
