Morena internal races intensify in Michoacán and Sonora

Overview

The race for Morena coordination and gubernatorial seats in Michoacán and Sonora continues to evolve. In Michoacán, Raúl Morón Orozco has maintained a significant lead in internal party polls. Recent data from Insightt places Morón at approximately 30% preference, leading Fabiola Alanís (23%), while CRIPESO reports him at 31.51%, providing a double-digit lead over Carlos Torres Piña at 17.94%. Morón has bolstered his position by securing formal support from over 45 social and union organizations and leading large assemblies in municipalities such as Uruapan and Zitácuaro.

Other candidates continue to mobilize specific demographics and territories. Gladyz Butanda has focused on indigenous communities and regional cultural wealth, while Carlos Torres Piña has conducted extensive territorial tours to secure support for the party’s defense of the ‘Transformation’.

In Sonora, the internal selection process for the State Coordination of the Committees for the Defense of the Transformation and National Sovereignty is entering its final stages. Celida López Cárdenas claims to be leading internal polls, emphasizing the need for political reconciliation and her ability to manage binational relations due to the state’s border status. Meanwhile, Lorenia Valles Sampedro has expressed confidence in the upcoming survey method, highlighting her commitment to territorial organization through house-to-house visits. National leadership is expected to provide final definitions regarding these positions toward the end of August.
