MEXICO: Moreno maintains hold over PRI
Alejandro ‘Alito’ Moreno, the controversial leader of Mexico’s centrist opposition Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), has been re-elected as the party’s president. He will remain at the helm of the party until 2028, with the possibility of extending his leadership until 2032. Moreno has presided over several poor electoral performances by the formerly dominant PRI, which has lost considerable power and prestige since he took over in 2019. His re-election will serve to divide the PRI further, with many former heavyweights from the party’s glory days already having jumped ship and more likely to follow.
