Overview
- Abelina López requested an indefinite leave that took effect Thursday to enter Morena's internal process for the 2027 Guerrero gubernatorial nomination.
- She formalized the separation in a Cabildo session and before the state Congress, and Leticia Lozano, the municipal secretary general, is reported to assume as interim mayor.
- Morena, together with PT and PVEM, set Guerrero registrations for June 23–27 at the World Trade Center and the party's Comisión de Elecciones has said it will closely review eligibility, with Félix Salgado Macedonio reported eligible to register.
- The move occurs while the Auditoría Superior del Estado has left 898 million pesos from Acapulco's 2023 public account under observation, a federal-fund audit that remains unresolved and poses legal and political exposure for the municipality.
- The next items to watch are the party vetting process, the municipal handover and whether the ASE audit is clarified, all of which will shape Acapulco services and López's campaign scrutiny in the months ahead.
