Mexico’s governing party Morena has appointed Luisa María Alcalde, the current Interior Minister, as its new leader to guide its future. This decision marks a fresh chapter in Mexican politics, blending youth with experience.
Morena’s extraordinary congress unanimously elected Alcalde as their national leader. At 37, this lawyer brings a new perspective to the party’s top position. Her term will run until October 2027, shaping Morena’s direction for years to come.
The change in leadership coincides with a broader political transition in Mexico. President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum will soon take office, stepping away from her party affiliation. This move aims to ensure impartial governance, free from partisan ties.
Sheinbaum expressed confidence in the new party leadership through social media. She believes Alcalde and her team will guide Morena with strong principles and unity. This support signals a smooth handover of power within the party ranks.
