Together We Will Make History (Spanish: Juntos Haremos Historia) is a Mexican political coalition encompassing the National Regeneration Movement (MORENA), Labor Party (PT), and Social Encounter Party (PES) to compete in the 2018 general election. Its presidential candidate and leader is Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

History

Juntos Haremos Historia was registered with the National Electoral Institute on 15 December 2017, to compete in the general election. The parties will field joint candidates for the presidency, 292 of 300 district seats in the Chamber of Deputies, and all 64 candidacies to the Senate of the Republic. The coalition is structured such that MORENA holds a 50 percent vote and the other two parties 25 percent.[1] A similar distribution is followed for the allocation of candidacies, including at the state level.

On 18 February 2018, at its national convention, MORENA unanimously selected López Obrador as its presidential candidate; the Labor Party and Social Encounter Party followed over the next two days.[4]

State coalitions

At the state level, Juntos Haremos Historia will compete as a similarly configured coalition in 27 of the 30 states holding simultaneous local elections in 2018.[5] Among the states where the three parties did not enter into coalition was Hidalgo, where the state PES party is linked to former PRI Secretary of the Interior Miguel Ángel Osorio Chong.[6] In the State of Mexico, a coalition agreement was signed but has caused dissent among PT party members for relegating the party in key municipalities.[7]
