Shadows on the Front

Xóchitl Gálvez's campaign is losing momentum due to internal party conflicts and criticism, diminishing initial enthusiasm.

Xóchitl Gálvez's campaign is facing significant challenges as criticism mounts and public enthusiasm wanes. The political dynamics among the different parties involved—particularly the PRI and PAN—have resulted in a loss of cohesion and energy that was initially present in her candidacy. The tensions between the traditional approaches of these parties have intensified, potentially jeopardizing their unified front against competitors.

The internal divisions within the PAN are palpable, with factions openly expressing discontent about aligning with the PRI, especially under its current leadership. Allegations of corruption and stagnation within the PRI have fueled this resistance, revealing a rift in the coalition's viability. Meanwhile, some PRI members lament a past era of power, suggesting that they could thrive independently, which further complicates the alliance.

As the campaign progresses, it appears that the unity necessary for a successful candidacy is dissolving, leading to a situation where blame is unproductive, but the implications of disunity are significant. The challenge for Gálvez's campaign will be to rekindle enthusiasm and forge a coherent message that can overcome the historical animosities and current criticisms among the allied parties.
