I examine the role of party dominance on elected politicians’ career path. Politicians’ career is divided between political and technical or administrative posts. To examine this relationship, I use data from the Mexican states over the period 2000‐2014. The paper exploits the 2008 US financial crisis as a source of exogenous variation in incumbents’ popularity level. Results support theoretical predictions that elected politicians’ profile in states with a dominant party changed more than in competitive states after the financial crisis. I find that after the 2008 US financial crisis, political experience of new elected governors in states with a dominant party decreased by 36 percentage points, on average, compared to states with no dominant party. Results are robust to different measures of political and technical or administrative career path.

This article examines how political context affects the strategic choice of nomination rules, using data from federal and state-level legislative elections. Our analysis indicates that competition affects the selection rules parties adopt. Overall, parties are most likely to use open selection rules when they think they will win, largely due to the effects of activist competition over coveted nominations. However, state-level party leaders have not been consistently empowered by decentralization. Although state-level party leaders do have nonnegligible influence when it comes to the selection of local legislative nominees, they have more influence in those states that are the most dependent on the federal government for resources. Competitive context continues to be a stronger predictor of selection rule choice than decentralization.

A partir de 2018 el sistema político mexicano sufrió una profunda transformación tanto a nivel nacional como subnacional. El presente artículo se centra en este último para examinar si el avance de MORENA en el control de gubernaturas generó un cambio en las elites políticas de los estados. A partir de una base de datos original de candidaturas a gobernador de dicho partido entre 2018 y 2023 se analizan las cualidades personales (género, edad, educación), su trayectoria partidaria y en cargos públicos de quienes las ocuparon. Se concluye que quienes representaron a MORENA en las contiendas (y en la mayoría de los casos obtuvieron una victoria) no tienen características muy diferentes de los representantes de los partidos que dominaron el escenario político con anterioridad.
