This is Guerrero. Morena is popular and reigns supreme in the state. But Zihuatanejo is a different kind of fiefdom, like Acapulco is, and the local politicians Morena postulates don't have the money to compete with the corruption they're up against. PRI will buy and coerce many of their votes, especially in the colonias of land thieves they've allowed to take over what is supposed to be our Zona Ecológica above the Cota 70 (70 meter mark). They own the hotel workers', construction and taxi unions. They allow people to get away with dubious nefarious things then call in their marks for elections. It will be very difficult for Morena to postulate a candidate who can win here, but it's possible. This region is a big PRI stronghold in Guerrero, though the PRD won here a couple of times.

I do vaguely remember that huge billboard campaign advertisement for the current mayor at the foot of Benito Juaraz during the last election. If I may ask, what amounts of resources does the local PRI typically bring to bear during an election cycle?

My apologies if this thread is bringing up some uncomfort.
