Danilo Medina, looking to assume party presidency in Dominican Republic

Santo Domingo, RD.

The Dominican Liberation Party (PLD, Opposition Leader) will hold a diocese in one of its ballots and will hold ceremonies in which it hopes the ex-governor Danilo Medina will take over the presidency of the organization in order to formalize it.

Medina, which between 2012 and 2020 has been pushing for the amendment to the Constitution to reintroduce the election, has been represented by various leaders in the presidency of the PLD and, although it has not reacted, no one else will take its toll.

The alcalde of the city of Santiago (north, second of the country), Abel Martínez, and the aspirant to the general secretary of the PLD Rubén Bichara, among others, he proposed that the ex-head of Estado be elected president of the formation.

All indications are that the supervisor does not tend to have the least obstacle to assuming the power, but even if in a surprise game, he or she decides not to accept.

The PLD also elected its secretary general to the remaining 43 members of its political committee, the body that owns the power in this party, founded in December 1973 by its president Juan Bosch, to resign from the presidency of the Dominican Revolutionary Party (PRD). ), que también fundó en La Habana, Cuba, en 1939, het die hacía oposición al dictador Rafael Leónidas Trujillo.

Although Medina does not have any opposition to making the most of the PLD, it will tend by the “recompose” tariff to an organization that has won the 2016 elections by more than 60% of the vote, and has lost four years when in favor of a 37% of the electorate.

With the Minister of Public Works Gonzalo Castillo as presidential candidate supported by Medina, the PLD salió of the power of 16 years consecutives in front of Gobierno, the first also of them under the leadership of President Leonel Fernández.
