Political activity in Querétaro, Mexico, has centered on party consolidation and candidate selection processes ahead of the 2027 elections. In late August, Luis Bernardo Nava Guerrero, the Secretary of Social Development and one of four aspirants for the gubernatorial nomination, urged unity within the National Action Party (PAN) to prevent Morena from gaining power in the state. By early September, Santiago Nieto Castillo called for strengthened cooperation between the Morena and Partido del Trabajo (PT) parties during a strategic assembly in San Juan del Río. Emphasizing the defense of the political project led by President Claudia Sheinbaum, Nieto Castillo noted that current progress stands on the ‘hombros de gigantes’ (shoulders of giants). In September 2026, Governor Mauricio Kuri González addressed internal PAN dynamics, expressing support for Nava Guerrero’s aspirations while affirming he would support whoever emerges as the official candidate. Concurrently, internal tensions rose within the PAN as factions debated the leadership of Luis Nava and Felifer Macías, while names such as Tania Ruiz, Liliana San Martín, and Bibiana Rodríguez were discussed as potential candidates. Within Morena, the appointment of Nieto Castillo as state coordinator for the Defense of the Transformation sparked debate regarding internal measurement results. By mid-October, parties began formalizing selection methods. PAN state leader Martín Arango García announced the completion of a 14-month research phase to identify regional needs, while PRI president Abigail Arredondo Ramos indicated that announcements regarding state coordinations could occur in November. On October 21, Deputy Georgina Guzmán Álvarez announced a tripartite political alliance in Huimilpan between Morena, the ~~Labor Party (PT),~~ PT, and the Green Ecological Party of Mexico (PVEM) for the municipal coordination of the Defense of the Fourth Transformation Committees. As of October 22, PAN members continue to await formal announcements regarding internal party coordinations.
