In September 2026, Governor Layda Sansores announced the strengthening of security protocols in Campeche following the Second National Drill. This exercise, conducted in coordination with the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection, aimed to evaluate prevention efforts and enhance emergency response coordination. By October 2026, the administration faced significant criticism from community leaders and former officials. Allegations included fiscal mismanagement, with claims that only approximately 30 billion pesos of 125 billion pesos received over five years were accounted for in public works. Critics also highlighted a security crisis in Ciudad del Carmen characterized by high murder rates and insufficient police presence. Additionally, accusations of “political persecution” were leveled against the governor regarding the treatment of political adversaries, alongside concerns over economic instability related to shifting Pemex operations. In mid-October 2026, during a working tour in the Calakmul municipality to deliver social, educational, and productive aid, Governor Sansores faced scrutiny regarding political endorsements. While inaugurating facilities and distributing resources for livestock and beekeeping, Sansores used the government communication program ‘Martes del Jaguar’ to endorse Welfare Secretary Esteban Hinojosa Rebolledo as a potential mayoral candidate for Campeche. Her statement, “Yo te defiendo mi Esteban,” has raised questions regarding potential violations of Article 134 of the Mexican Constitution, which prohibits the use of public resources for personalized government propaganda.
