Political career

Angel Aguirre Rivero took a degree in Economics from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, where he also served as professor in the same faculty. In 1991, he was postulated and elected as Deputy for the Sixth Federal Electoral District of Guerrero to the LV Legislature of the Mexican Congress from 1991 to 1994, from 1993 to 1996 was also President of the PRI in the State of Guerrero.

On 12 March 1996, the then governor of Guerrero, Rubén Figueroa Alcocer, requested to leave his post due to the Aguas Blancas massacre, where peasants were murdered by agents of the state police at the ford of Aguas Blancas in the municipality of Coyuca de Benítez; the same day, the Congress of Guerrero appointed him as interim governor, finishing the remainder of Figueroa's term until 31 March 1999.

In 2003, he was elected again as Deputy for the LIX Legislature representing Guerrero. In 2006 he was nominated as a candidate for Senator for the PRI in the first formula of the candidatures, being second in the election and therefore occupying the seat of "First minority".[3]

On 25 August 2010, Aguirre announced that he would leave his membership in the PRI and become the PRD candidate for governor of Guerrero,[4] subsequently winning the January 30, 2011 elections[5] and taking office on 1 April.
