2022 Quintana Roo gubernatorial election

The 2022 Quintana Roo gubernatorial election was held on 5 June 2022 to elect a new governor of Quintana Roo and 25 deputies to the state congress.[1] Despite Carlos Joaquín González being a popular incumbent governor from the Party of the Democratic Revolution and the National Action Party[2][3] the race was considered as a long shot due to the state's high approval of López Obrador,[4] Morena's strong showing in the midterms[5] and Mara Lezama's own popularity.[6] On November 3, 2021, it was revealed Marko Cortés, the leader of the National Action Party expected to loose the state along with other four in play.[7] The election resulted in a landslide for Mexico’s ruling Morena party during President López Obrador's first term in office, winning the gubernatorial election. Additionally, they won all 15 local districts with the opposition only getting proportional representation seats.[8]
