A formal request in which they ask the Electoral Court (TE) to clarify what happens with the counting and validation of signatures in the recall process of Mayor José Luis Fábrega’s mandate, was presented, this Tuesday, May 3, by the lawyer Roberto Ruíz Díaz, who assured that there are several complaints about the alleged lack of counting that more than 70 signatures.
Ruíz Díaz’s request comes after some citizens sent them the buyers of signatures that are far from the figures provided by the TE, since the numbers in the signature certificates are higher than those issued every Monday by the electoral entity.
“We are already seeing that it is a constant in the difference of signatures that there are. There are around 70 to 80 signatures that have not been counted, so we went to the Electoral Court, so that it certifies us in writing, what is happening with that lack? debugging since the TE itself said that with the biometric identification system it was not necessary to do the debugging since the signatures were automatically validated.
Until 4:00 pm on Monday, a total of 14,542 signatures had been validated in the process of collecting signatures to revoke the mandate of the mayor of the capital district, José Luis Fábrega.
According to the bulletin of the Electoral Tribunal, of the total signatures, 12,888 correspond to people who went to the User Service Center, while another 932 to the kiosks.
The lawyer explained that a request was also made to the director of the Electoral Organization, Osman Valdés, to make a statement about the propaganda carried out by Mayor José Luis Fábrega against the recall.
“The mayor is holding marches, the mayor is holding rallies, that is publicity that he is carrying out, so I cannot advertise or be paid or receive donations. We are at a disadvantage with the mayor,” she pointed out.
