The campaign for Cozumel’s new Presidente is officially underway. Although the elections aren’t until July, candidates have already been attending public events, beach clean-ups and visiting Cozumel neighborhoods. Several national parties, as well as smaller, and even local political groups, are represented in this year’s race.
Some of the candidates include: Fredy Marrufo Martin, (PRI – Partido Revolucionario Institucional) Roberto Olan Carrera (PAN – Partido Acción Nacional) Ramón Escalante Cervera (PRD – Partido de la Revolución Democrática), Eliot Reyes Novelo (PVEM – Partido Verde Ecologista de México), and Cesar Trejo Vázquez (MC – Movimiento Ciudadano).
Elections traditionally take place on the first Sunday in July, which in this case is July 6th. The Presidente’s term is 3 years, with no re-election permitted.
