The issue in Morena is not about one person, but about many, emphasized Senator Beto Anaya to avoid pinpointing criticism at a time when discontent with the party's president and her secretary of organization is growing. Beto Anaya insists that the alliance of the 4T continues, and he is already asking for three governorships for the PT. In this way, the senator and a powerful figure in the State of Mexico joined the criticism that his colleague from Guerrero, Félix Salgado, has launched in recent days. Salgado criticized the 'red' party for prohibiting direct family members from running for office, while there are figures in the organization with members of their family nuclei in different administrations. "We would have no problem saying there is a bad governor from Morena or a bad mayor," remarked the senator, who believes this type of criticism would prevent the negative public perception of the 4T from growing. Salgado reiterated that he will not run in Guerrero and pointed to the leadership of Morena. "Without naming names, many issues in Morena must be reviewed: leadership, direction, state and municipal governments, and, of course, the coalition we have with allied parties," added the senator and warned that if the 'red' party does not take this path, "the people will turn their backs" on the 4T. Higinio Martínez, vice-coordinator of Morena in the Senate, joined the criticism that his fellow party member from Guerrero, Félix Salgado, has launched in recent hours against the national leadership of the 'red' party, headed by Luisa María Alcalde and Andy López Beltrán. "Morena has to correct many things, even how it is directed and who directs it at the national level and in the states," the senator stated in an interview with TV Azteca, where he emphasized that the party's goal, after approving the Plan B promoted by President Claudia Sheinbaum, should be "to update many things in its environment." It is in this context that the criticisms of Félix Salgado and Higinio Martínez, among others, and the obstacles from the Green Party and the PT to the electoral reform plans promoted by Head of State Claudia Sheinbaum are occurring. As LPO anticipated, the party president, Luisa María Alcalde, and the Secretary of Organization, Andy López Beltrán, are going through critical moments within the party. Following the controversy generated by their statements, the father of Governor Evelyn Salgado tried to distance Luisa María Alcalde from his son's remarks, but the resentment within the 4T had already been generated. In this context, Higinio Martínez stated that if Morena "wants to continue being the most attractive party for citizens, it must correct" some things and work "more on criticism and not have a problem with criticism being public." "We cannot hide that we have errors and problems; on the contrary, they must be addressed publicly or internally and resolved," he went on. As next year's elections approach and the process to confirm each candidacy begins, internal tensions in Morena are growing. "Many things must be corrected," he stated during an interview with a television channel. "I am not going to name names, but it should be reviewed."
