Mexico City, July 17.- The measure approved Saturday by the Complaints and Reports Commission of the National Electoral Institute (INE) "does not prevent" the candidates in the internal process to define the national coordination for the defense of the Fourth Transformation from holding informational assemblies in public spaces, conducting tours, or other types of events, assured the Morena leadership.
He maintained that "the resolution establishes that there should be no proselytizing elements at our events," but also expressed that they do not agree with this point, "which we will enforce through the appropriate channels."
In a statement explaining what the electoral body approved, according to the INE, the candidate indicated that the candidates participating in the internal process "have complied with the terms of the INE's precautionary measures; however, the right-wing narrative and the harassment of some INE officials who appear at the events aim to confuse and exploit any spontaneous expressions people make to decontextualize them."
He also emphasized: "We know that the conservative bloc would like to remove our assemblies from the streets and public squares, because they like to do things in secret; they don't like democracy or public debate. Once again, they have failed."
The leadership of the cherry-colored party pointed out that the INE resolution establishes that internal process events should be held "preferably" in locations belonging to the political party itself, such as its state or municipal offices; they should be directed toward members and supporters; "no electoral-related statements should be made," and explicit information about the content must be provided before the start of each event.
They will also have to review the content of the speeches of those participating in the process, in line with the agreement reached by the INE commission this weekend, and the precautionary measures issued by the electoral body a month ago, which, he insisted, the party has complied with.
