Three will be the proposals that will be discussed from Monday to 14:00 among the 347 conventional to attend Park North in the framework of a new radical national convention. Four years after the meeting in Gualeguaychú where membership was officially changed, the UCR decides whether to ratify this path or look for new alternatives. Between names, possibilities and rumors, at the moment (and not much left) the only thing that defines the national electoral assembly is the uncertainty. The actors in politics and us, no one seems to be very clear about what’s going on. The presentation of the precandidacy of a president in the hands of an aspiring vice, the comings and turns of Roberto Lavagna, the ratification of Daniel Scioli as president but with a potential reorientation towards the federal Peronism and the Enigma Massa are some Examples of this.
The political class, that is to say, the actors that are supposed protagonists of the electoral assembly, seem spectators of the 26 days that remain in the limit to present the presidential lists. What is and who is the UCR National Convention?
The National Convention is the deliberative body of the party and the maximum partisan space, that is to say, has greater power of decision than the President of the party (Alfredo Cornejo) According to the provisions of article 5 of the Organic Charter. In practice, it integrates By the representatives of each of the provinces of the country with 4 conventional by Deputy and other four by Senator. Within the remit of the National Convention, “Deciding on the national order of political coalitions or alliances for electoral purposes, exposing the fundamentals justifying them, as well as their terms and scopes” in the Party we debated a lot and strong “says Filo. News one of the main spokesmen of the UCR, something that reference in the Convention of Gualeguaychú where between cries and Sillazos, the party decided to join the alliance change. Three proposals, a decision
The exchange run on the end of 2018 and the beginning of this year’s electoral calendar in La Pampa began to account for the presence of three major scenarios within the Radical Civic Union: “Rupturists”: With Ricardo Alfonsín, Federico Storani and Jorge Sappia to the head, from which arises the withdrawal of this alliance and the search for new political horizons with Roberto Lavagna and the progress of Stolbizer and Socialism Santa Fe.
“Let’s Change and expand”: With the president of the party, Alfredo Cornejo, as main spokesman, seeks to summon the references of Peronism “writer” and activate the plan “V”, something induced in the document “a new coalition of government to build an Argentina Healthy and predictable. ”
Continue to change, support MACRI: What is sought is to institutionalize the rules within the alliance, but with the support of the search for re-election of the current president. Here looms the Buenos Aires vice governor, Daniel Salvador, who presented his ideas at the convention that took place in the city of Branden.
“Decisions are organic, you have to respect them. If you are not satisfied that we continue to change and you go candidate with Lavagna, immediately these disenrolled from the party, “says the spokesman of the Radical Committee, advancing any possible discomfort in the only possible resolution against these three Proposals. The truth is that the government understands that radicalism is going to remain in change, but not without claims that realize the weakness that the economic situation represents and the electoral confirms. What do you expect then?
While the rupture posture will seek to make clear his message, the scenario would seem to be defined among those who propose continuity in the alliance. In this line is that it would be logical to call for the formation of a commission to discuss the enlargement of change and as in 2015, with presidential internal. The latter is key if we consider that there is an important sector of radicals (the side that poses to continue in this space) that have sustained in these months that with the candidacy of Mauricio MACRI does not reach and trust in Martín Lousteau, figure whose political decisions Every two or four years they usually surprise themselves and strangers.
The reality is that in 2015 from the UCR decided to go with MACRI because they understood this as a future bet, which made them meet with the lost vote of the middle class. Today they see MACRI moving them away from the middle class and looking for alternatives but not big changes. Of the electoral course 2019 of change, the UCR was not unscathed either. They lost the city of Córdoba and Santa Rosa, while this could be repeated in the city of Santa Fe on 16 June. In this note:
