Alejandro Moreno Cárdenas is shaping up as the next national president of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) according to the advancement of the counting of squares. 
As of Sunday night, Moreno and fellow formula Carolina Viggiano had achieved 84.5% of the vote, the Preliminary Results Program (PREP) said.
For the formula of Ivonne Ortega and José Encarnación Alfaro, there are 7.9%, and 2.3% for Lorena Piñón and Daniel Santos, and correspond to 33 percent of the six thousand 140 squares that were installed throughout the country.
At a press conference, the president of the National Commission for Internal Processes (CNPI), Rubén Escajeda Jiménez, noted that the official results will be released next Wednesday, August 14, the counts will be validated and the record of a majority will be delivered to the winner, so that next Sunday, August 18, will take office.
He stated that the militancy of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) is satisfied with the development of this Sunday’s election day for the Prilists to elect their new national leadership.
Raccoons and hauling
However, Moreno Cardenas’ contenders reported illegal practices such as hauling and fraud. 
Ortega Pacheco, who was in formula with José Encarnación Alfaro, denounced irregularities such as hauling and vote-handling during the internal comic day, “and not because they did not vote for us, but because they stole the election.”
However, he said that they will continue to work because they are the voice of militancy and Mexicans, so he called on his followers not to lose that, which is what they gained in this process.
She urged not to lose contact between those who supported her and stated that she will not abandon them, “because this is not the end point, “this is the beginning of the struggles that await us, so get ready.”
The former governor of Oaxaca, Ulises Ruiz, accused that the fraud in the internal election of the PRI is as outrageous as the so-called “Master Scam” and warned that he does not recognize the triumph of Alejandro Moreno Cárdenas, “Alito”, because it was the product of a cynical and brazen robbery.
In a positioning uploaded to his social networks, he warned that he never imagined that the fraud that was being prepared reached the proportions of what has been seen today particularly in the states of Oaxaca, Campeche and Coahuila.
The former state-based staff, who supported Ivonne Ortega’s formula, stated that they will already account for the minutes of the receiving tables of the alleged “historical” share that in many tables reached one hundred percent of the standard and, in almost all, more than 90 percent in favor of Alejandro Moreno Cárdenas.
“Neither prisism nor society as a whole expected the embarrassing spectacle we have given in this unbridled process,” Ruiz Ortiz recalled.
No allegations of fraud
However, Rubén Escajeda assured that no serious incidents occurred during election day, and that no challenge or election crime that occurred during the day of the day has been reported to the PRI Party Justice Commission. , and that the videos and photos that were released on social media do not proceed without a direct complaint.
“But I reiterate that once we have these challenges, until now we don’t have them, we have seen, as you on social media, some facts, that when you arrive through the proper through and the formalities that the legal regulations will have to take the measures and give them their due process,” he added.
He stated that in general the voting day ended without incident what to regret, but on the contrary the CNPI qualified it as “successful, because they were installed at the end of the accounts, of six thousand 150 squares, six thousand 140”.
