No green light at Los Pinos for 2018
It is completely false, we are told from the federal government, that President Enrique Peña Nieto has given the green light to some members of his cabinet and Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) politicians to begin to move freely in search of the presidential candidacy. They state that the order that he sent a few weeks ago to those who were already ahead is still in force. We are told that there are sectors of PRI that are trying to pressure the president to give the go-ahead sign, but they say that has not happened, nor will happen until after the next elections in the State of Mexico, Coahuila and Nayarit. From these results, decisions will be made and then yes, those who already have their foot on the accelerator will be able to see the squared flag, but only if their car has gasoline, as we are told, because today, there are many who will not even be on the starting line.
Teachers out of politics?
The president of the National Union of Education Workers (SNTE), Juan Díaz de la Torre, says that for the first time in 25 years, the teachers' agenda is not politics, and when asked if he would not like a teacher to be governor, Mr. Juan replied that he would prefer that the educational system be transformed into the future, not into the past. The thing is that it seems that Mr. Juan has not received the newspapers in recent days, nor has reviewed the information of websites and social networks, because, in the State of Mexico, there are teachers whose agenda is political, some of them, close to the former leader of the SNTE, teacher Elba Esther Gordillo, are working in favor of the campaign of their colleague of MORENA, Delfina Gómez, and others work to try to put Alfredo del Mazo on the chair. Are you sure the agenda is not politics, Mr. Juan?
MORENA needs representatives
One of the main concerns that MORENA has, in the face of the upcoming elections to the government of the State of Mexico, is that they may not have enough representatives to cover the total number of polling stations. We are told that, out of the 100%, they only have 70%, which leaves them at a disadvantage because they will not be sure how many votes they receive in some districts. However, some members of MORENA, less optimistic, assure that the number of representatives who will take care of the votes received by their candidate, Delfina Gomez, is too optimistic, as they will have many less, which, in an election as close as the one expected on Sunday, June 4, it becomes and critical issue that could make the difference.
Firecracker at PRD
The Electoral Tribunal of Judicial Power of the Federation (TEPJF) registered a citizens' trial filed by the leader of the Democratic Revolution Party (PRD) and former senator Carlos Sotelo, to denounce the absence of a call for the internal election to the leadership. Sotelo, now a member of the PRD's National Executive Committee (CEN), has already litigated in the past and won a similar trial at the Tribual to force the transition in that party, when Jesús Zambrano was the leader, so it doesn't seem preposterous that he could win the trial again and that the TEPJF, once again, forces the members of the PRD to comply with their own rules. Thus, while the leadership is occupied with the formation of an opposition block for the election of 2018, a firecracker can explode in an unexpected way.
