Samuel's Cabinet Trembles: Struggles in MC over the 2027 Succession

An impending cabinet reshuffle for Nuevo León Governor Samuel García has generated intense tension within the Citizen Movement (MC) and exposed a complex power struggle ahead of the 2027 gubernatorial election.

The halls of the Cantera Palace are a hive of rumors and anxiety. Governor Samuel García is preparing to move his cabinet pieces, in what is shaping up not as an administrative adjustment, but as a high-stakes political chess move to consolidate his power, align his party, and position himself for the next great battle for Nuevo León, even if it means opening fissures within his own team.

According to political analysts, the possible departure of key cabinet figures has put the Citizens' Movement on edge. One of the names at the center of speculation is that of a senior official named Navarro, whose possible removal has met with unexpected resistance: the state's influential business sector has directly asked the governor to keep him in his position.

This fact reveals that the governor's power, although considerable, is not absolute, and he must negotiate with the economic elites who are a real power factor in Nuevo León.

The tension isn't just external. Within the ranks of MC, the movements are causing "cracks." There are rumors that Representative Mike Flores could be called to join the cabinet, but sources close to the party indicate that he is "not convinced to accept" the position, as he has his own political ambitions, such as a Senate candidacy.

In turn, the reshuffle of the MC party's caucus in Congress, with the promotion of Iraís Reyes to replace Eduardo Gaona, has generated internal disputes over coordination, demonstrating that every move in the Executive Branch has direct repercussions in the Legislature.

All this political chess game has a clear objective on the horizon: the gubernatorial race in 2027. Samuel García appears to be executing a long-term strategy to ensure the continuity of his political project. This involves placing his most loyal pawns in strategic positions, both in the government and within the party, to build the necessary machinery for the next election.

However, this move is not without danger. By forcing changes that generate resistance among business leaders and ambitious members of his own party, the governor risks the unity that has allowed him to govern. How he manages these tensions in the coming weeks will be crucial. It will determine whether he manages to consolidate his undisputed leadership or, on the contrary, whether internal struggles end up weakening his political project from within. The fight for the future of Nuevo León has already begun.
