Morena Challenges Opposition Narrative with Data-Driven Analysis of 2025 Election Results
Mexico's Morena Party Rebuts Claims of Electoral Losses, Citing Population Data Mexico City, June 4, 2025 – A recent video from Mexico's Morena party challenges the opposition's portrayal of the party's performance in the recent 2024-2025 state elections. The video, featuring Morena's National President, Luisa Alcalde, uses data from the states of Durango and Veracruz to illustrate that Morena's governance has expanded despite winning fewer municipalities than in 2022. The analysis focuses on the percentage of the population governed by Morena, highlighting a significant increase in both states. In Durango, Morena's share of the governed population jumped from 15.14% in 2022 to 33.05% in 2025, despite losing four municipalities. In Veracruz, the increase was even more dramatic, with Morena's governed population growing from 60.03% to 65.01%, adding eight more municipalities to its control. "The narrative promoted by the opposition about supposed electoral defeats of the Movement is unsustainable," stated Alcalde in the video. "The electoral results of 2024-2025 in Durango and Veracruz are very clear and reflect the preference that these two states have for our Movement." The video uses charts to visually represent these changes, making the data easily accessible to viewers. The video's analysis emphasizes that focusing solely on the number of municipalities won provides an incomplete picture of electoral success. By highlighting the significant increase in the population governed by Morena, the video offers a counter-narrative to the opposition's claims of defeat.
