~ Former MORENA Senate Leader Ricardo Monreal Will Not Run for Mexico
City Head of Government
7. ~ After finishing last in the MORENA presidential contender selection
process and after Omar Garcia Harfuch's resignation and potential entry to the
Mexico City head of government race, former MORENA Senate Leader Ricardo
Monreal announced September 12 he would not run for Mexico City head of
government. Predicting the candidate selection would come down to either
Garcia Harfuch or lztapalapa Mayor Clara Brugada and noting he had no chance of
winning the MORENA nod, Monreal said he did not want to cause divisions within
the party. In a series of interviews, Monreal also said he had no interest in
serving as a cabinet member in a potential Sheinbaum administration and would
now focus on teaching, writing, and "hop[ing] for better times." Yet on the same

the ruling coalition to an outcast in only a few years, mostly because of his open

despite having a close relationship with her shows he is willing to collaborate,
although likely in exchange for positions for his close advisors. On September 12,
media reported Monreal's daughter would run for mayor of Cuauhtemoc, the
Mexico City borough where Monreal served 2015-2018. Meanwhile current
mayor of Cuauhtemoc Sandra Cuevas (PRO), who reportedly also has close ties
with Monreal, is trying to secure the opposition's candidacy for Mexico City head
of government. End comment.

General's Office (FGR) in Guerrero, Fernando Garcia Fernandez, while he drove his
vehicle to his office in Chilpancingo September 12. First reports noted armed
