The election of the internal bodies' holders at the X PAN Congress, held on December 20, was declared invalid, forcing the convening of an emergency meeting. The situation calls into question the legitimacy of the elected leader and the other governing bodies of the party. The incident arises in the context of the congress that should have consolidated PAN's leadership for the next term. The party's internal bodies will have to meet to resolve the issue and repeat the electoral process, in order to ensure that the election is considered valid.
