(In first paragraph, corrects first name from Adriana to Ariadna Montiel)
MEXICO CITY, May 3 (Reuters) – Mexico’s ruling morena party on Sunday named Ariadna Montiel Reyes as its new party president after her predecessor Luisa Maria Alcalde stepped down from the role to join the administration of President Claudia Sheinbaum.
Montiel was serving as minister of welfare under President Sheinbaum, a role she also held under the previous president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
