DEMOCRACY

PRI Assembly; Differences. Disciplines and Discrepancies

 The institutional Revolutionary Patty (PM) held its 17th National Assembly on September 20-22. Grassroots activists joined with some "dinosaurs" to enact some significant changes in the party apparatus. Perhaps the most significant is a change in the statutes that requires party candidates for the offices of President or Governor to have ten years party experience and to have been popularly elected to office in the past. This is seen as a response of grassroots militants to the increasing role of "technocrats" in elected offices.
