In Tlaxcala, the internal race for Morena party coordination continues to favor Ana Lilia Rivera. Recent polling by Rubrum indicates she maintains a significant lead, holding a 19.1 percentage point advantage over Alfonso Sánchez García. While Sánchez García persists in holding informative assemblies to build support, Rivera has maintained a consistent lead in recent measurements.

Beyond political developments, Governor Lorena Cuéllar Cisneros is supervising the construction of new offices for the General Archive and the Directorate of Notaries and Public Records in Apizaco. Located within the Judicial City, the project has reached 35% completion with an investment exceeding 130 million pesos. The facility is intended to centralize and digitalize public records from 24 notaries to improve legal certainty and safeguard family heritage.

Other regional updates include the Tlaxcala City Council initiating a second phase to clear public spaces for transit, and the Federal Attorney General's Office (FGR) securing prison sentences for two individuals convicted of illegal firearm possession in the state.
