'I do not agree' that the wife of the governor of San Luis Potosí runs for office, says Claudia Sheinbaum
Claudia Sheinbaum voiced her disagreement over the potential candidacy of Ruth González Silva, the senator from the Green Party and the wife of Governor Ricardo Gallardo, for the governorship of San Luis Potosí.
Claudia Sheinbaum, the President of Mexico City and a prominent figure in the Morena party, expressed her disapproval regarding the prospect of Ruth González Silva, senator of the Green Party and wife of the sitting governor of San Luis Potosí, Ricardo Gallardo, vying for the governorship. She highlighted that while it is up to Morena to make a decision about this potential candidacy, she believes that family members should not immediately succeed their relatives in political office due to ethical considerations. Sheinbaum’s statements reflect a larger concern about political dynasties and the importance of waiting six years before family members compete for the same position.
