La Mesa Democratic Unity on Monday the country presented the schedule for Perfect Alliance, a map open, participatory, decentralized, approved by the 50 political and social organizations that shape, from which the periods are set to select candidates who will compete in legislative elections in 2010.
During a conference news conference at the headquarters of First Justice, the national coordinator of the yellow awning, Julio Borges served as spokesman for the Bureau for Democratic Unity.
Borges reported that the schedule started with the agreement of Nov. 19 and continues with the definition of rules to select the most suitable men and women to fill the seats in the National Assembly. This phase will be completed in 15 days.
By January we will have defined the rules and know which ones will go to polling arrangements and in which a primary. "We made it clear that the agreements will not be built in Caracas. These are defined in the regions, always favoring the popular will, "he said, unlike the mechanism used by the PSUV to their elecciones internas.
En febrero se dará inicio al proceso de primarias en las regiones donde se haya decidido. En marzo, se irá a los acuerdos y si no se logra un compromiso se tendrá todo el mes de abril para resolver a través de elecciones primarias. A más tardar el 30 de abril, la alternativa democrática presentará al país sus candidatos.
“Esto que estamos presentándole al país hoy, es un mapa abierto, concreto, claro. Queremos mostrar a los venezolanos una agenda positiva en las áreas de seguridad social, justicia, empleo, etc. y a la vez darle la seguridad de que vivimos en un país plural donde la gente puede elegir”, señaló Borges.
Parallel to these agreements, the Bureau for Democratic Unity will have a committee to coordinate all the logistics for monitoring voting at polling stations and finish building the country's proposal "containing a renewed agenda for the Venezuelan laws and meat bone, which seeks to give Venezuela the counter you need. "
not succumb to government threats
Borges was asked about recent statements made by the President of the Republic, under which there will be war in the country if the opposition sectors to gain the majority government in the National Assembly.
regard replied: "As said last year during the regional and municipal elections. At that time it was to scare people into not come out to vote. We know that next year, the government will appeal to all her wiles to sow fear among the population and generate abstention. "
He added that one year of the threats, the Venezuelan people know "who is dedicated to the war, who is the one who disrespects the Venezuelans, who is it that is dismantling the powers" by cutting resources governors and mayors of the democratic alternative.
For this reason, he said, is that Venezuela needs a National Assembly to make counter and set clear rules, legislating for the country and also controlling the Executive.
On the possibility that some individuality want to ignore the agreements reached by the Bureau of Unit, Borges said that the 50 political and social organizations that make up this mechanism "build a united platform similar to that formed in 2005" and said which intends to sabotage any agreement will be set aside. Respecting
regions Asked whether consensus or primaries will be similar to those applied by the PSUV, said "The process of the PSUV is just one example that we can not continue. No known how many militants voted, what were the results and also the party president has the power to appoint finger. "
democratic forces will advance a more open and complex process of choosing a finger. Surely there will be primaries in a significant number of polling stations, because that is the essence of democracy.
"We must view this with great maturity and seriousness. In 2005 we achieved a perfect alliance, as is at this time. Hopefully we can do so before April. Let me make clear that the agreement of November 19 was not voted on, was the product of a process of consensus building. "
Around maturity and seriousness that should express political organizations, Borges said Primero Justicia, for example, will not present candidates in all electoral districts. "We know that there are places where we have leadership, others where we have fewer leaders and others where we have not. That is why we insist on the table unit that face the challenge of 2010 is impossible to miss. "
Finally, in relation to independents who aspire to a deputation at the Capitol, the Bureau of Unit agreed that "in consultation with the regions and social sectors will be included in the nominations unit figures without party membership and representatives of civil society ", not option if you would have to be measured in a primary.
Borges added that the independents will have a chance "to the extent of generosity and openness that we have political parties." About
profile candidate to be defined by the NA, he said it would be up to each political party and not the Bureau for Democratic Unity to place their filters to prevent unsuitable figures crave an elective office.
