Morena stands firm before PT and Verde with its electoral reform

The leader of Morena in the Senate, Ignacio Mier, asserts the need for the party to uphold its principles regarding electoral reform, with or without allies, emphasizing the importance of not distorting their stance for the sake of the initiative.

Ignacio Mier, the president of the Senate's Political Coordination Board, has made it clear that Morena must adhere to its core principles regarding electoral reform, regardless of whether they have the support of allied parties such as the PT and Verde. He stated, "We in Morena cannot distort ourselves; we have a conviction regarding austerity in electoral processes." This assertion points to a commitment to maintain the integrity of their reforms without compromising their values. Mier emphasized that the reform should not undermine the independence of the National Electoral Institute (INE), but rather should strengthen it, ensuring the autonomy between the branches of government and safeguarding the sovereignty of state electoral agencies. His comments reflect a focus on a balanced approach to electoral reform that respects both party ideology and the institutional framework within which they operate. Furthermore, as the discussions around the potential reform continue, Mier reinforced that the position of his party will remain unchanged, advocating for the principles that Morena has consistently communicated to the people of Mexico. This suggests a commitment to transparency and accountability in the reform process, as well as a clear stance on the party's goals moving forward.
