The federal deputy of the PRI, Mario Calzada Mercado, expressed his opinion on the upcoming election of 2027, indicating that it could be a significant opportunity for his party to demonstrate its strength without the need to form coalitions with other political parties.
Amid divergent positions within the PRI and PAN regarding the continuity of the coalition between both forces, Calzada Mercado acknowledged the existence of different schools of thought. Some believe that the coalition is an effective strategy to face electoral challenges, while others think it is time for each party to measure its own strength and reaffirm its identity before the citizenry.
The deputy emphasized that the elections of 2027 are a crucial opportunity for the PRI to compete individually and demonstrate that it has significant political capital. Calzada Mercado expressed confidence in the solid base of PRI militants and supporters, mentioning that the party should prove its worth separately in those elections, which would strengthen its identity and allow for a clearer assessment of its position before the citizenry.
In his call for reflection within the party, the deputy highlighted the importance of making future decisions based on the interests of the citizens and the viability of consolidating a project that ensures the continuous positive development that the state has maintained over the years.
