The deputy and president of the Regionalist Social Green Federation (FRVS), Jaime Mulet, reacted to a possible postponement of the elections of April 10 and 11, where councillors, mayors, regional and conventional constituent governors will be elected. In this regard, he said that we should try to avoid a suspension of elections because it could “extend the mandate of President Piñera”.
“We must try to prevent these elections from being suspended, for two reasons: one, extending the mandates of authorities is not convenient,” the mp said.
“Let us think that if this continues, for example, we will have to extend President Piñera’s term of office by the end of the year, and I think that is unsustainable. In fact, I think he has some responsibility for what’s going on today,” Mulet added, highlighting failed testing, traceability and isolation strategies within the framework of the coronavirus pandemic.
“On the other hand, it was shown that the October 25 process, the last election in the midst of the pandemic, was not an increase in case cases due to a vote. If things are done right, we can, with all the safeguards, believe that the election should be made,” concluded the FVS helmsman.
