Emilio González
Emilio González was the Governor of Jalisco from 2007 to 2013, representing the National Action Party (PAN). His administration was marked by significant political developments in the state, as well as challenges related to drug violence. González's tenure coincided with the rise of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), which would later dominate the region's narcotics trade. His government faced criticism for its handling of security issues, particularly as drug-related violence escalated during and after his time in office.
