As Mexico gears up for the 2027 elections, the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) has unveiled its preliminary candidates, including Rosario Robles. In response, President Claudia Sheinbaum reacted with amusement during a press conference, saying 'no comments' regarding the candidacies presented. She sarcastically remarked that these candidates were 'new, brand new,' highlighting a perceived lack of originality in the PRI's approach to candidate selection.

On March 18, Alejandro 'Alito' Moreno introduced the main profiles for the gubernatorial candidacies for 2027, indicating that the PRI aims to start its groundwork ahead of the elections, which will see 17 gubernatorial positions contested. Unlike the more leisurely approach anticipated by the ruling party, MORENA, the PRI emphasized its proactive strategy to engage voters across various states and ensure a competitive edge in the forthcoming electoral landscape.

Each state participating in the 2027 elections will feature at least one PRI candidate, with plans to effectively communicate the party's project and vision. The article lists some of the prominent candidates for various states, suggesting a robust preparation process as the PRI looks to reclaim influence and overcome criticism as the elections draw nearer, ultimately shaping the narrative of political competition in Mexico.
