The massive Morena rally in the Zócalo on Sunday continues to be talked about, but not in a good way. The Morena rally, it should be remembered, was held to "celebrate" another month of waiting for tariffs.
Various sources claim that Morena supporters who went to the Zócalo received between 600 and 900 pesos for their attendance.

Among the attendees were also workers from the ISSSTE, IMSS, and CDMX government officials, as well as members of unions.
Filling the Zócalo with hired attendees was not an easy task. It required the participation of governors and Morena leaders in all states. One of these was Tijuana, where officials from the Secretary of Welfare handed out 900 pesos to attendees.

There are also those who claim that there were threats to public officials. The threats included dismissals and lack of payment if someone didn't attend the rally.
Officials claim Morena spent 12 million pesos in Michoacán
Morena allegedly spent more than 12 million pesos to mobilize about 15,000 Michoacán residents to the rally of President Claudia Sheinbaum. This was calculated by leaders in Michoacán of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI).
In a press conference the PRI leader,Guillermo Valencia Reyes, condemned the "waste" for a "hiring" of this magnitude.
"Today a mega demonstration was called in Mexico City, which involved the hiring of a large number of Mexicans, many of them from Michoacán. A large amount of public resources was spent, just to go and demonstrate, and not genuinely, because they are hired attendees."
According to Edna Janette Martínez, secretary of the Political Council of the PRI in Michoacán, they had to spend about 12 million pesos per entity.

It is considered that in Michoacán there would have been 7.5 million for 300 vehicles with 50 people each, and around 5 million for their respective "refreshments."
It should be mentioned that the authorities of the guinda party in the entity have denied that public resources are used for this purpose, as "everyone contributes their own."
Many sectors questioned the event, referring to it as a "partisan rally," unproductive in containing an imminent financial crisis. Only time will prove otherwise.
