PT

Wikipedia describes it as socialist and far-left. An ally of Morena, it won 6.46% of the presidential vote in 2024 and holds 49 Chamber seats and 6 Senate seats. It is named in the race for the largest party in the 2027 Mexican legislative election.

History

The party was established on 8 December 1990, formed from coordination among social groups including teachers' movements and agricultural worker unions. At its 1991 debut it failed to meet the 1.5% threshold for national party status, and it has grown significantly since. It consistently allies with leftist parties, notably supporting Andrés Manuel López Obrador's presidential campaigns, and joined the Juntos Haremos Historia coalition in 2018 and Sigamos Haciendo Historia in 2024 alongside Morena.

Positions

Wikipedia describes the party as socialist and far-left, with connections to Maoist thought. It advocates socialism of the 21st century and calls capitalism an unjust system. Its platform supports decentralization, socialist market economics, judicial reform through popular vote, Latin American integration and recognition of Palestinian statehood.
