Murat resigned from INFONAVIT in order to run as the PRI candidate for governor of Oaxaca. There were several questions about whether Murat qualified for the office,given that Article 23 of the Oaxaca state constitution says that only citizens of the state can run for its elected offices. [4] The case was taken to the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation,which unanimously ruled that Murat was eligible because both of his parents were born in that state,and the state constitution defines any child of a parent from Oaxaca as a citizen of that state. [5] He ran under a PRI-PVEM-Nueva Alianza coalition and won on June 5,2016. [3]
