Movimiento Ciudadano recruits candidates from other parties

Movimiento Ciudadano (MC) is reportedly recruiting political candidates from various backgrounds to bolster its electoral prospects. Rather than relying on an internal training system for ideological cadres, the party is actively seeking experienced politicians from other parties, including members of the PRI, PAN, Morena, and PRD.

In addition to party members, MC is targeting independent candidates. Notable examples include efforts to recruit Grecia Quiroz, the mayor of Uruapan, for the Michoacán governorship. Other potential candidates include Alfredo Lozoya in Chihuahua, Sergio “Pío” Esquer in Sinaloa, and Daylin García in Baja California, all of whom have previously run as independents.
