Scandal in the Campaign: Video Coordinator Resigns at Antro de Polanco
Juan Pablo Sánchez Gálvez, national coordinator of the Xóchitl Gálvez campaign, has submitted his resignation after being captured on video where he is involved in an altercation scene in a Polanco club, while he was under the influence of alcohol.
Sánchez Gálvez, 27 years old, held the position of “National Coordinator of Xóvenes sin fear”, personally appointed by the candidate in that strategic role.
The dissemination of the video on social networks generated a wave of criticism and questions towards the young coordinator and the candidate. Both he and Gálvez offered public apologies, alleging that the incident took place last year, when he was 26 years old, according to the candidate's communications team, noting that it occurred in April 2023.
However, Jorge Avilés, known as “Callo de Hacha”, the individual who originally spread the video, stated that the attack took place on November 17, when Gálvez was already a pre-candidate for the Opposition.
In a video where he announced his resignation from the campaign, Juan Pablo Sánchez Gálvez expressed his regret and apologized to those who were offended by his behavior.
Xóchitl Gálvez, for her part, also publicly apologized and stated that, as a mother, she took disciplinary measures when she learned of the incident, including separating her son from the campaign team. “In life there are consequences when you make a mistake,” she said.
The scandal also received comments from other public figures, such as Beatriz Gutiérrez Müller, wife of President AMLO, who urged politicians in the campaign to play fair and avoid affecting family members as “collateral damage.”
Xóchitl Gálvez thanked Gutiérrez Müller for the gesture, in a rare exchange of messages in the midst of the polarized electoral campaign.
