The Mexican Workers' Party (in Spanish: Partido Mexicano de los Trabajadores, PMT) was a left-wing Mexican political party, that had legal registration in the 1980s, its main political figures were Heberto Castillo and Demetrio Vallejo.[1]
Despite having been founded and recognized as a political party in 1974, the PMT only participated in elections in 1985. This is due not only by non-compliance with legal requirements, but because although the political reform of 1977 created flexible figures such as registration conditioned, the party decided not to participate in the negotiations to grant the registration that the government offered to the opposition and therefore did not compete in the 1979 and 1982 elections.[2]
