Morena denounces 'massive vote buying' by PRI in Coahuila, files complaint

The National Regeneration Movement (Morena) has accused the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) of orchestrating a systematic operation to buy and coerce votes in Coahuila. The party announced it has filed a complaint with the Coahuila Electoral Institute (IEC), citing a clear violation of electoral law.

Morena alleges that the PRI distributed individual QR codes to voters, promising financial remuneration in exchange for their support. Guillermo Santiago, a federal deputy and Morena's representative to the INE General Council, stated that this constitutes "massive and systematic vote buying."

In addition to the complaint with the IEC, Morena intends to report the matter to the Cyber Police to investigate the technological infrastructure, servers, applications, and databases allegedly used by the PRI. They will also file a complaint with the Financial Intelligence Unit (UIF) to trace funds invested in this alleged vote-buying platform and demand the freezing of accounts due to illicit financing.

Morena emphasized its commitment to pursuing the matter to the fullest extent, asserting that the PRI's actions are a crime and that the will of the people must be respected. The party vowed to oppose what it described as the PRI's attempt to manipulate the electoral process.
