== Initial Historyhistory and Lifelife as a Politicalpolitical Partyparty ==
 
=== Background ===
The PFCRN has it'sits origins dating back when the then-[[Workers' Socialist Party (Mexico)|Workers' Socialist Party]] (PST) was experiencing major internal political problems, causing members of the PST to split politically.
 
Many members eventually defected and laid the groundwork for a new political party, particularly former PST leader [[Rafael Aguilar Talamantes|Rafael Anguilar Talamantes]] and the cooperative Unión de Ejidos Majomut, which was founded in 1979 by Protestants and coffee corporatives in Chiapas to oppose the [[Institutional Revolutionary Party]] and support a campesino candidate backed by the ''Organización Regional Indigena de los Altos de Chiapas'' in [[Chenalhó|Chenalho]].<ref>{{Cite book |title=Mayan lives, Mayan utopias: the indigenous peoples of Chiapas and the Zapatista rebellion |date=2003 |publisher=Rowman & Littlefield |isbn=978-0-7425-1148-4 |editor-last=Rus |editor-first=Jan |series=Latin American perspectives in the classroom |location=Lanham, MD}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Solís |first=Daniel Villafuerte |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=KzQqbUB7MrMC&q=Uni%C3%B3n+de+Ejidos+Majomut&pg=PA345 |title=La tierra en Chiapas, viejos problemas nuevos |date=1999-01-01 |publisher=Plaza y Valdes |isbn=978-968-856-727-2 |language=es}}</ref> A decade later, during 1987, members of the Ejidos Majomut merged with former PST members and other small left-wing organizations to form the Cardenist Front of National Reconstruction.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Rus |first1=Jan |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=mcjBAAAAQBAJ&dq=Uni%C3%B3n+de+Ejidos+Majomut+frente+cardenista&pg=PA141 |title=Mayan Lives, Mayan Utopias: The Indigenous Peoples of Chiapas and the Zapatista Rebellion |last2=Castillo |first2=Rosalva Aída Hernández |last3=Mattiace |first3=Shannan L. |date=2003-09-03 |publisher=Rowman & Littlefield Publishers |isbn=978-1-4616-4005-9 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Moksnes |first=Heidi |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ZN49qm2yMgMC&dq=Partido+Frente+Cardenista+de+Reconstrucci%C3%B3n+Nacional&pg=PA2005 |title=Maya Exodus: Indigenous Struggle for Citizenship in Chiapas |date=2013-07-29 |publisher=University of Oklahoma Press |isbn=978-0-8061-5036-9 |language=en}}</ref>
 
=== 1988 Electionselections ===
For the [[1988 Mexican general election|1988 federal elections]] , the PFCRN joined the [[National Democratic Front (Mexico)|National Democratic Front]] , nominating [[Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas|Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas Solórzano]] as a candidate for the Presidency. Among the parties that supported the candidacy of Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas, the PFCRN was the one that capitalized on the greatest number of votes (9.37%) and managed to earn 38 seats in the chamber of deputies in the coalition [[National Democratic Front (Mexico)|National Democratic Front]]. This had the consequence that its candidates occupied the majority of the deputies that were recognized to the left alliance at that time [[LIV Legislature of the Mexican Congress|LIV Legislature]].

After the following [[1994 Mexican general election|Federal elections in 1994]], the party obtained less than 1% of the votes. Three years later In 1997, the PFCRN attempted to restructure its image by adopting a simpler name, the '''Cardenista Party (PC)''' ([[Spanish language|Spanish]]: '''''Partido Cardenista'''; '''PC''')'' In that year, the PFCRN participated in the first elections for Head of Government of the Federal District and nominating the well-known journalist, [[Pedro Ferriz Santacruz|Pedro Ferriz Santa Cruz]] as candidate. After another electoral failure in the [[1997 Mexican legislative election]] after it failed to secure 2.0% of the total votes, the Cardenista Party lost its registration definitively and dissolved later that year.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2012-07-13 |title=El maestro de la traición y su legado |url=http://elcorreodeoaxaca.com/81/art05.html |access-date=2023-04-14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120713012652/http://elcorreodeoaxaca.com/81/art05.html |archive-date=2012-07-13 }}</ref>
 
=== State Politicalpolitical Partyparty ===
The Cardenista Party re-emerged and obtained its registration as a state political party in Veracruz in 2013. In that state, it participated in the 2013 state elections and despite obtaining 88,267 votes (2.77%) it managed to earn 3 mayoralties ([[Coahuitlán]], [[Úrsulo Galván|Ursulo Galván]] and [[Vega de Alatorre]]) and 1 multi-member council, thus preserving its registration. For the 2016 elections he was part of the '''Coalition to Improve Veracruz''' together with the [[Institutional Revolutionary Party|PRI]] , [[Ecologist Green Party of Mexico|PVEM]] , [[New Alliance Party (Mexico)|PANAL]] and Alternativa Veracruzana which nominated PRI senator [[Héctor Yunes Landa]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Yunes Landa, atento a cómputo final de OPLE |url=https://www.eluniversal.com.mx/articulo/estados/2016/06/8/yunes-landa-atento-computo-final-de-ople/ |access-date=2023-10-17 |website=El Universal |language=es}}</ref> However, the Cardenista Party was not part of the same coalition for the election of deputies, choosing its own candidates independently.
