Marko Cortés, Lilly Téllez, and Mauricio Vila elected as PAN’s first plurinominal Senators.

The top spots for the National Action Party (PAN) in the Senate’s proportional representation seats will be secured by their national leader, Marko Cortés; the governor of Yucatán, Mauricio Vila; and the current senator, Lilly Téllez, all poised to secure their positions in 2024.

In accordance with the statutes of the National Action Party, the National Permanent Commission of the PAN allocated positions 1, 4, and 7 on the national list for the Senate through proportional representation.

During this afternoon’s meeting, the commissioners unanimously approved the allocation with zero votes against and zero abstentions. This decision solidifies the candidacies of Marko Cortés, Mauricio Vila, and Lilly Téllez for the upcoming elections.

Marko Cortés, as the national leader of the PAN, has been a prominent figure within the party and has played a key role in shaping its agenda. His inclusion at the top of the list demonstrates the party’s trust in his leadership and political acumen.

Mauricio Vila, the governor of Yucatán, has garnered recognition for his governance and leadership skills, which have earned him popularity among both party members and constituents. Securing a place in the Senate would potentially amplify his influence and allow him to continue advocating for the interests of Yucatán at the federal level.

Lilly Téllez, the incumbent senator, has been an active participant in the legislative process, voicing her opinions and representing the party’s values. Her re-election bid highlights her experience and commitment to advancing the party’s agenda.

By securing these prominent positions on the national list, the PAN aims to bolster its chances in the 2024 elections. The party recognizes the importance of maintaining a strong presence in the Senate, as it plays a crucial role in shaping policies and legislation that impact the nation.

While the allocation of these seats has been met with unanimous support from the National Permanent Commission, it is worth noting that internal party dynamics and external factors can influence electoral outcomes. The PAN will undoubtedly face fierce competition from other political parties vying for Senate seats in the upcoming elections.

As the 2024 elections draw nearer, all eyes will be on the PAN’s candidates and their strategies to secure victory. The positions of Marko Cortés, Mauricio Vila, and Lilly Téllez within the top spots of the national list provide them with a strong starting point as they embark on their campaign journeys.

The PAN will continue working towards building a cohesive platform and rallying its members behind its candidates. It remains to be seen how these developments will unfold and impact the broader political landscape leading up to the 2024 elections.
