Likewise, he presented the schedule once the receipt of credentials of those eligible for the positions of Comptroller, Attorney General of the Republic, and Ombudsman is completed.
“On the 26th we will present the list of candidates in national newspapers and media. On Monday the 28th the evaluation process would begin for 5 consecutive days,” he stated.
Alessandrello highlighted that to date they have received 105 applications to hold positions of Citizen Power, which reflects the “participatory and leading spirit” of the Venezuelan people.
Those interested in participating in the process must submit their credentials at the Bolivian Museum of Caracas, in the morning between 8 am and 11:30 am.
