Solidarity Encounter Party
The Solidarity Encounter Party ( es, Partido Encuentro Solidario, PES) was a political party in Mexico. The party president was Hugo Eric Flores Cervantes. It was the functional replacement for the Social Encounter Party, a Christian-oriented, social conservative party which lost its registration after failing to attract sufficient vote share in the 2018 general election. History In 2018, the Social Encounter Party, in its second federal election, ran as part of the '' Juntos Haremos Historia'' alliance with the National Regeneration Movement (MORENA) and Labor Party (PT). However, despite the alliance electing the winning presidential candidate—Andrés Manuel López Obrador—and the PES winning 35 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and seven in the Senate, its standalone performance was poor.

Progressive Social Networks
Progressive Social Networks ( es, Redes Sociales Progresistas, RSP) was a Mexican center-left political party formed in 2020. History RSP was founded on January 19, 2019, as a civil association, by Juan Iván Peña Neder. Over the course of the year, it worked to obtain registration as a political party; by December 2019, they had signed up 262,000 party members and held assemblies in 20 of 32 states, which allowed them to meet the requirements set by the Instituto Nacional Electoral (INE). However, a change in legal representative on October 9, 2019, less than a year after its foundation, portended a shift in the party's power base, after the executive committee replaced Peña Neder with José Fernando González Sánchez, son-in-law of powerful—but corrupt—teacher's union leader Elba Esther Gordillo. González Sánchez and René Fujikawa, a former federal deputy for the defunct New Alliance Party that was also tied to Esther, had been present at RSP's first official act. Th ...

Constitutional Crisis
In political science, a constitutional crisis is a problem or conflict in the function of a government that the political constitution or other fundamental governing law is perceived to be unable to resolve. There are several variations to this definition. For instance, one describes it as the crisis that arises out of the failure, or at least a strong risk of failure, of a constitution to perform its central functions. The crisis may arise from a variety of possible causes. For example, a government may want to pass a law contrary to its constitution; the constitution may fail to provide a clear answer for a specific situation; the constitution may be clear but it may be politically infeasible to follow it; the government institutions themselves may falter or fail to live up to what the law prescribes them to be; or officials in the government may justify avoiding dealing with a serious problem based on narrow interpretations of the law. Specific examples include the South Afric ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
