Morena party Lorenia Valles Sampedro Ariadna Montiel Reyes Sonora political coordination Edomex leadership vacancy

Morena national president Ariadna Montiel Reyes has appointed Lorenia Valles Sampedro as the state coordinator for the Committees for the Defense of the Transformation and National Sovereignty in Sonora. During an assembly in Hermosillo, Valles Sampedro highlighted the party's local strength, noting 1,600 sectional committees, 72 municipal councils, and 245,000 members. She pledged to strengthen territorial organization and uphold the political legacy of Andrés Manuel López Obrador and President Claudia Sheinbaum.

In a separate development, Luz Ma. Hernández Bermúdez has resigned from her position as the state leader of Morena in the State of Mexico (Edomex) to run for the municipal coordination of Ecatepec. Hernández stated that her departure is intended to follow party rules and does not signal a division within the movement. The National Executive Committee (CEN) will be responsible for appointing a replacement, potentially through a delegate, to lead the party in Edomex.

Additionally, Montiel Reyes announced that the party will conduct investigations into the profiles of its coordinators and will review all candidates for the 2027 elections. This vetting process will utilize information from the National Security Cabinet to ensure candidates align with the party's values of honesty and austerity.
