In a key strategic move for her political aspirations, the Mayor of the National District and prominent figure of the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM), Carolina Mejía, made official this Sunday the integration of the President of the Senate, Ricardo de los Santos, into her campaign team. De los Santos will assume the national coordination of the political project that seeks to lead Mejía to the presidential candidacy for the 2028 elections.

Trust and leadership in the political structure
During the swearing-in ceremony, the mayor emphasized that the experience and leadership demonstrated by Ricardo de los Santos in the Legislative Branch are fundamental assets to strengthen her proposal. According to Mejía, this appointment responds to the need to have a solid team, capable of coordinating work at a national level with a view to the upcoming presidential elections.
I assume this responsibility with the firm commitment to work tirelessly, always maintaining a close bond with the citizenry, under the pillars of honesty, efficiency, transparency, and constant dialogue.

A decisive step towards 2028
With this appointment, Carolina Mejía’s presidential project consolidates one of the most important pieces of its organizational machinery within the PRM. The incorporation of heavyweight figures like De los Santos seeks to energize grassroots work and project a cohesive structure ahead of the ruling party’s internal process.
The support for this decision has been remarkable, including explicit backing from leaders such as César Cedeño, who highlighted the suitability of Ricardo de los Santos to lead this national coordination effort, thus marking the beginning of a defining stage in Mejía’s aspirations for the presidency of the Republic.
