Senator Ruth González Silva, who is positioning herself as a candidate for the governorship of San Luis Potosí in 2027 to succeed her husband, Ricardo Gallardo, stated that Morena (the National Regeneration Movement) still has a lot of work to do in the state. She warned that Morena is currently the third political force in San Luis Potosí and will need many years of effort to succeed. The senator clarified that her remarks are not a break or distance from the party, but a call for respect. She noted that in 2021, Morena was the fourth force, but in 2024, their candidate was very strong and won by a landslide. The parliamentary leader indicated that senators aspiring to positions will likely request a leave of absence around June to focus 100% on their campaigns, travel through regions to gain more supporters, and not be part-time. He mentioned that he has already discussed this with colleagues, and some are close to requesting leave. In addition to the senator from San Luis Potosí, other potential candidates for governorships in Nuevo León, Colima, Nayarit, and Guerrero include Waldo Fernández, Virgilio Amezcua, Jasmine Bugarin, and Karen Castrejón, respectively. Regarding a possible split with the PVEM (Ecologist Green Party of Mexico), the parliamentary coordinator affirmed it is not a rupture but a matter of waiting for Morena's support if they decide to run Senator Rodríguez Silva, a profile Morena would not endorse due to nepotism rules.
