It was in that same year, when the young woman represented the country in Miss International, an event in which the driver and judge, Diego Di Marco, asked her: “What qualities should a woman who wants to govern a country like Mexico have?”

To this, Geraldine Ponce replied: “I believe that the most important quality that this woman must have is love, love for Mexico so as not to allow any person, neither her own nor someone else’s, to harm her, as well as honesty and dedication to make Mexico have its place that we we deserve in the world”.

At the end of this stage, the now deputy wrote an emotional message on her Instagram account, where she thanked the love and support she received from family, friends and followers.

“Today ended one of the most beautiful stages I have ever experienced. Being Our Beauty Mexico International 2016 left me a lot of learning in all aspects. I am very grateful to God for having given me the opportunity to represent my beautiful Mexico and put his name high in the eyes of the world, always with pride, dignity and a lot of love. And grateful to my family and all of you for all the support that I always received, all that love that you gave me was a great motivation to give my best, thank you for everything, I always carry you in my heart.”

“Welcome, Lopez Obrador, the best President of Mexico that Nayarit has ever had.” She wrote on her Twitter account celebrating AMLO’s arrival in her home state.
