YASunidos will protest outside the CNE

Last Tuesday the environmental group YASunidos said they will organize a protest this Wednesday outside the National Electoral Council (CNE for its Spanish acronym), to express their dissatisfaction with the signature verification process, which they consider fraudulent and manipulated.

Pedro Bermeo, spokesman of YASunidos, said the organization is not only outraged by the disqualification of the more than 200,000 signatures in the final verification stage, but for the more than 500,000 signatures that were canceled during the entire process.

The activist also admits that some anomalies such as forged signatures or inconsistent data may have arisen, but he ensures that the group took the time to verify that the signatures were not repeated or falsified, since they could have presented many more signatures, more than 800,000.
