Insiders said there are five main contenders: Porfirio Muñoz Ledo, Mario Delgado, Yeidckol Polevnsky, Alejandro Rojas-Díaz Durán, and Javier Hidalgo. The battle to lead the political party is going to be a tough one.

Nevertheless, Delgado asked INE authorities to allow his supporters and the media to enter the INE offices when he finally registered as a contender to lead Morena. So the lawmaker forgot all about physical distancing.
