Political Situation in Nuevo León

The governor not only holds the top spot in key statistics at the state level but has also earned that recognition nationally. It is valuable to have a governor with such a high level of approval. After Governor Samuel García boasted about his approval rating ahead of the presidential race, the state leader of the Citizen Movement (MC), Baltazar Martínez Ríos, recalled that Senator Luis Donaldo Colosio is also a profile pointing to the National Palace. As LPO had anticipated, the relationship between operators in the northern part of the Metropolitan Area and the Palace of Cantera is complex. Sources within MC assure that for this reason, companies near the peripheral area may have been affected. On the other hand, the MC coordinator in Congress, Sandra Pámanes, was also questioned about Governor Samuel García's intention to run for president and limited herself to praising the official. 'The governor maintains an 80% approval rating; in other states, he is a model. But as the state coordinator of MC, we are proud to continue working and see alternative politicians at the national level, we see two figures, Luis Donaldo Colosio and Samuel García, we are proud of them,' declared the leader. Baltazar Martínez Ríos' neutrality regarding the distant relationship between Governor García Sepúlveda and Luis Donaldo Colosio has been one of the causes that annoy the governor's inner circle. 'But the most important thing is what the Nuevo León people think, we must continue to support the government so that everything goes well,' he added. However, unlike his son, Baltazar Martínez Montemayor, Martínez Ríos restrains his attacks due to his position as a leader of MC.
