At the moment no one can feel like the candidate elected by his party for the sectional elections next March, despite the advance announcements made by their parties or political movements in previous months.

Those who decided to start their campaign tours are still only pre-candidates. His nomination will be final after the primary elections that each party and movement must hold. That is a mandatory requirement established in the Code of Democracy.

The regulations determine three ways to choose candidates: open, closed and representative elections. The National Electoral Council (CNE) must certify the elections.

Are the primaries dead letter when there are parties that have already decided their representatives? For the CNE authorities, this is not the case. They reiterate that the requirement of the primaries must be met, otherwise the candidacies cannot be registered.

“We know that there are certain preferences and in some cases a predisposition of great party leaders within which suggestions are endorsed. But the most important thing is that a party or a movement, appealing to its political maturity, not only has to respect vertical criteria of internal leaders, but they have to undergo an internal selection process, “said CNE president Gustavo Vega.

For her part, the vice president of the electoral body, Diana Atamaint, reiterated that it is an unavoidable requirement that political organizations must comply with. “You have to comply with the law, this is part of the procedures that must be followed to choose the candidates. The parties and movements must see that this participation of their affiliates or adherents is free and voluntary, without directing on candidates already established, “she said.

The political organizations consulted by EXPRESO ensure that they comply with this requirement. They agree that the politicians who have presented themselves or have been designated in advance are pre-candidates.

The Coordinator of the Christian Social Party (PSC), Henry Cucalón, told EXPRESO that the national convention will be fulfilled once elections are called, that is, after November 21, to ratify the designations made. “Even, the designations that have been given have been within an internal participation”.

“The parties have pre-candidates. We are clear in the Democratic Center that we must hold primaries with the presence of delegates of the Electoral Board of Guayas, “said Jimmy Jairala.

For his part, the coordinator of CREO, Roberto Gómez, said that in the national convention, which will be held at the end of November, the candidatures will be formalized. “Each political organization has its own way of nominating candidates, in CREO primary elections were made to elect the provincial directives and these are empowered to present candidates, thus complying with the law.
