Prior to the second government report of the constitutional governor of the State of Mexico, Alfredo del Mazo Maza, TheObserverMéx conducted a series of interviews with legislators from different parliamentary factions of the Local Congress in the State of Mexico, in which they took stock of the achievements and setbacks, from his point of view, in the second year of this administration.
Thirdly, they were asked to give a grade from one to 10 to the second year of Alfredo del Mazo's government, but not everyone agreed to do so.

Qualification. Declined
The legislator of Morena considered that the positive thing could be that “there is certain support to schools for the initiative to donate infrastructure, it has been progressing little by little,” said the deputy. Noting that this slow progress is due in part that a political force will not always govern in the executive and there are certain resistances.
He considered that we must fight against the legal vices that do not allow progress in transparency and control, he said.
As for the most salvageable, there is progress "in general terms" and the worst "if there is resistance." She said
In the same way, he said that the governorship is already an autonomous power, and therefore, it is working in education, health and economy.
"The governor no longer acts in an omnipresent manner, but he already realizes that citizenship is an effective counterweight," he said.
When she was asked about the qualification for the president, she said: "Hopefully the citizens will rate it, I have to be respectful."

The role of the governor has been good, although he has worked with such a limited budget with which he has worked throughout 2019, it is also a matter of the three levels of government.
He has been able to perform his activities properly, it is not only a matter of the governor but also of the three levels of government.
Budget for decentralized agencies has been taken away, the federal government has been taken away to give to women, on gender issues. We need to strengthen the governor with a bigger budget to deliver better results.
We have a national insecurity 2018 52%, this year 69%, violence against women increased by 17% nationally.

We will wait for the government report to be provided to have elements to evaluate its performance, I would not like to take hurried steps, to give the pertinent comments.

It is a complicated time for those who represent a position at the governmental level on a municipal basis. There has been a lack of cooperation and according to the consensus between the federal and state sphere.
Mexicans expect results, but those results are not going to happen if we do not enter into a directive to establish a situation between the different levels of government.
Issue of insecurity, we endorse the theme of the national guard, there have been no agreements that amalgamate strategic planning that is what is required.
Most notably, the health sector, the governor found a secretary of indebted health, already took action, determined budget for works of hospitals in various municipalities and hospitals.
Who qualifies us is citizenship. It is not me who qualifies.

It is premature to evaluate why the Public Account has not been received, but you have to see the numbers, especially on security issues, I think it is negative, also on social issues, it has not been understood by the state government.
You can not continue to profit from the needs of the people, the programs are still discretionary issues and are managed through partisan apparatus, it has not been understood that the country changed and that people demand social results, since more than half of the population of the State of Mexico, they are in poverty, they do not attend universality, they are still giving gifts.
He has focused on the pink card while AMLO seeks the universality of social programs, the state continues to work under a partisan stance on that issue.
There is no report on resources and loans to compensate for the reconstruction of the 2017 earthquake.
Insecurity is unleashed, root causes are not addressed, it is a matter of social justice, combating impunity and corruption. In the State of Mexico, the issue of political authorities that abuse their authority and misuse public resources has not been addressed, while at the federal level, it has already begun.
The supposed advances are reflected only in the discourse and not in the reality where there are many problems. Just remember that five million Mexicans go to Mexico City to get a job. We are still second-class residents, in security in neighboring areas there are sewers of crime.
The very clear inequalities and Alfredo del Mazo should be consistent with healing them.
The good thing is available for dialogue with the federal government.

He is a governor who puts effort to move forward for the benefit of the State of Mexico. On security issues, you can praise him, the data has gone down.

The governor began his governorship under a scheme of an earthquake that he destroyed and has not rebuilt, his government is in the same way - destroyed - just as he has not been able to repair the earthquake.
The aid is not seen, under the scarce support such as the pink salary, and that do not impact the Mexicans in a positive way, continue using the political resources to obtain an electoral political clientele.
Although its logo is multicolored, it is a government that does not paint. On the positive side, let's see what it says in your report, let's wait. He is touched by an electoral result that delegitimizes him, a federal election one year away that annihilates him, with a Local Congress where his party only won a district in the majority.
It is questioned of origin, in its involvement in the topic of the Master Scam. In a democratic country in a government that it represents, it is unsustainable, and the most worthy thing is to request a resignation so that new composition is given. Appears when AMLO-summons it, and only there is seen. He is an absent governor.
