As early candidate profiles for the governorship of Nuevo León from the 4T begin to take shape, tensions are intensifying within Morena and its allied parties, particularly around the figures vying for the position. Recently, Senator Waldo Fernández faced an electoral complaint filed by Fernando Cuevas Murillo, a person who presents himself as a sympathizer of the movement but is associated with groups within Morena supporting other gubernatorial aspirants, which translates into internal attacks. The complaint was for alleged pre-campaign acts stemming from the dissemination of a video during his legislative report from the Senate. However, the Electoral Tribunal of Nuevo León unanimously ruled that the alleged conduct did not exist, as neither electoral intent nor the improper use of public resources was proven. This episode adds to other recent ones, such as the appearance of messages and public accusations against the senator following the judicial reform discussion, as well as contrasting dynamics on social networks, which some interpret as attempts at premature wear and tear. Sources suggest that various polls within the 4T position Waldo Fernández among the profiles with the highest support and voting intention for the internal definition, even highlighting him as a frontrunner in several opinion polls. This situation elevates the party's internal conflict. These scenarios of internal disputes have become recurrent, responding to the upcoming definition of candidacies in Morena, a party where there is no clearly dominant figure or where several profiles compete with similar levels of recognition and positioning. For now, the national leadership of Morena has insisted that polls will define the future coordinators of the defense of the transformation, avoiding public ruptures. The inescapable doubt is whether these episodes respond to a natural competition between aspirants or if a more aggressive strategy of internal containment is being configured, in which tribunals, social networks, and political operators are beginning to play an increasingly recurrent role.
