The Minister of Health and leader of Más Madrid, Mónica García, has stated that political decisions within the party are made by its militants, highlighting the party's internal democracy.

This statement comes amid an internal debate with another party member, who has expressed interest in running in the primaries to be a candidate in 2027. The discussion centers on who should participate in the internal voting process: only militants or also sympathizers.

"I have never stopped talking to Emilio Delgado. One thing I believe is part of our organization's DNA and that we should have tattooed: 'Primum non nocere,' first, do no harm. Above all, we do no harm to ourselves or the organization."

The debate over the electorate in the primaries has been a key point. According to the party's statutes, voting for the regional presidency is reserved for militants who have actively participated in at least three party events during the last year. However, the other party member has advocated for the inclusion of sympathizers in this process.
Mónica García has strongly defended the role of militants, insisting that they are the ones who should make the fundamental political decisions within the formation. She has compared this situation to the autonomy of other parties, emphasizing that each organization defines its own decision-making mechanisms.

"It's that simple… Just as I don't make the decisions for the PSOE, or the PP doesn't make the decisions for Más Madrid, and it's that simple."
