The political group is also made up of Mayor Ana Bentaberri and Deputy Ruben Bacigalupe.
“I want San José today to convey to Uruguay everything that we have a great candidate, someone who knew how to be by the side of the president in the most difficult moments and is, without a doubt, our secretary of the Presidency,” said Falero.
The minister, who is also coordinator of the Aire Fresco sector, said that Delgado “is not only the ideal candidate, but this whole process in the government accompanying the president positions him as the natural candidate, which will allow us to have the peace of mind the continuity of an excellent government”.
In his speech, Falero also announced that his group should be the one that sets the course to proclaim Delgado’s candidacy at the sector congress to be held in the middle of the year.
Despite receiving support, Delgado has not yet made his presentation to the elections official, and is holding a speech in which he indicates that he is concentrating on management and that later it will be time to talk about candidacies.
