The Green Party's deputy Claudia Chapa and the PT's deputy Lupita Rodríguez also opted not to cast their vote. The situation is complex because the senator is in a position of absolute centrality: he was backed by Claudia Sheinbaum, won his legal battle, increased his profile, and managed to set a precedent to avoid dirty tricks. Deputies Anylú Hernández, Grecia Benavidez, and Berenice Martínez abstained, while deputies Jesús Elizondo and Tomás Montoya chose not to vote. It is worth noting that allies did not back the senator either. Nevertheless, local actors are still not signing on to his project. The inevitable question is: what will happen in the summer if Waldo is anointed as the candidate? Will the victory in the poll discipline a space that reveres disruption and intransigence, or, conversely, will there be a subtle shift towards other options? The most likely scenario, as one party actor points out, is that there will be an initial alignment, but when the time comes, unilateral interests will prevail. This behavior of the northern Morena movement also explains the understanding that dominates in the camps of MC and the Front: that the 2027 race is still, primarily, a two-player game. The stance of the Morena faction in the NL Congress on Tuesday was a very accurate reflection of the situation within the 4T in the northern entity. Only four Morena deputies supported MC's request for the Attorney General's Office to investigate the actions of the state Attorney General's Office in the affair involving Karina Barrón, which affected Senator Waldo Fernández, one of the main contenders for the guinda nomination in 2027. Coordinator Mario Soto and legislators Reyna Reyes, Brenda Velázquez, and Greta Barra supported the request for an investigation.
