Va por México (lit. transl. "Goes for Mexico" or figuratively "It’s for Mexico") is a Mexican electoral alliance formed by the National Action Party (PAN), the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), and the Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD) to compete in the 2021 Mexican legislative election.[2]
The coalition will compete in 171 electoral districts, of which 60 will correspond to candidates of the PRI, 57 to candidates of the PAN, and 54 to candidates of the PRD.[3]
History[]
The coalition arose in opposition to MORENA, its political alliance Juntos Hacemos Historia, and the presidency of Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
Marko Cortés, National President of the PAN, assured that although there was debate over the coalition within the party, the critical situation in the country, where "institutions and the democratic system are threatened", was put at the forefront of the decision to participate. He also stressed a modernization agenda and the objective "to defend what we have achieved over many years".[2]
The coalition claims to support social causes, the defense of employment, support for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and the eradication of violence against women.[4]
The coalition will field candidates in 171 of the 300 federal electoral districts, covering all the districts of 18 states and some districts of five others. Of these, 60 will belong to the PRI, 57 to the PAN, and 54 to the PRD.[3]
