45 Local Parties Form National Confederation, Submit Parity Reforms to Congress

The move signals a bid for equal treatment with national parties.

Overview

  • The new confederation of 45 state-registered parties, unveiled Thursday in the Senate, filed an election reform package with the Permanent Commission.
  • The proposal would count votes won by municipal presidents toward creating or keeping party registration and open the full pool of state public funding to local parties.
  • Morena senator Alejandro Murat hosted the leaders for the filing, which they addressed to Permanent Commission president Laura Itzel Castillo.
  • Organizers say the bloc spans 25 states, claims nearly four million votes, governs more than 250 municipalities, and holds over 50 seats in state congresses.
  • Leaders plan a national congress in July to set a 2027 strategy, a step that could shape alliances and competition in local and possibly federal races.
