For real this time? Encinas would accept PAN alliance in Mexico State

There's been a lot of back and forth regarding the willingness of lack thereof of Alejandro Encinas to accept an alliance with PAN should a consulta popular or vote among both parties' members support it.

Yet in a meeting with Nueva Izquierda, the social-democratic and largest faction of the PRD from which its national president hails from, Encinas declared he would accept an alliance with PAN if the people wants so.

That is pretty important news, and vastly more significant  than the PT's public refusal, also announced  yesterday, to engage in any alliance with the PAN; this "Workers Party," duly in quotation marks, will join the alliance if Encinas does so.

(and a side note: El Universal reported the first story, while La Jornada only reported the second...)
