History
Morena was founded by Lopez Obrador as an inter-party organization to support his candidacy for the presidency in 2012 [5] . After the election, Lopez Obrador left his former party, the Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD), and Morena is transformed from an unofficial “movement” into a political party (with Lopez Obrador as its leader).
