The Neuquén Justicialista Party Congress will meet this Sunday to make the decision that he had been putting off for months: if he decides to go to the elections on April 16 in a electoral front and with which candidate. The preliminary accounts suggest that the resolution will be in favor of Ramón Riosecothe candidate who has the support of Senator Oscar Parrilli, and not Rolando Figueroa, as promoted by a minority sector for now.
As you might know yesterday BLACK RIVERSunday’s appointment will be in Zapala, at 12:30 p.m.. This was resolved by the Provincial Council of the party he presides over Dario Martinezwho this week reappeared in public but only to appear in efforts related to his former Secretary of Energy.
The position of the highest authority of Peronism in the province was never known until now, nor why. declined his own candidacydespite the fact that a year ago he appeared as the “natural” leader of the space to dispute the government in 2023.
yes it is known that Parrilli is the main promoter of the alliance with Riosecowhom the PJ already supported in the two previous elections, while the party’s president in the capital, Marcelo Zuniga, is in the group of those who were more inclined towards an agreement with Figueroa. In recent days, the councilor dedicated himself to the assembly of candidatures in some localities with the seal of the PJ and even began to promote one for the capital, that of the lawyer Sergio Mayorga.
In the sector that was fighting for the alliance with Figueroa, Javier and Tanya Bertoldi had also been counted at the time, despite the fact that in recent months they also lowered their profile and avoided making new comments on the subject, at least in public.
Leakage risk
“It can cause a spillage”, evaluated a PJ source yesterday regarding the possibility that leaders who are not satisfied with the decision adopted by Congress can migrate towards other candidacies. After all, the 2023 election has been putting all party structures in tension, from the MPN to the last opposition party.
There are already several internal groups that anticipated their adherence to the Neuquinizate campaign, even before waiting for the decision of Congress.
Some claim that the Frente de Todos might register as an alliance under that name, even though will not have the same conformation of parties than in 2019 or 2021. In addition to the PJ, only Kolina, the Solidarity Party, El Frente and the Neuquén Participation and Popular Unity might remain if compared to the integration of the 2021 legislative elections. Instead, the Grande Front has already announced an agreement with Figueroa, and the UNE and Unión Popular will go with the MPN.
