On Tuesday night, photographs were made viral between the president of the Authentic Radical Liberal Party (PLRA), Efraín Alegre, and former senator Juan “Ancho” Ramírez, who is fighting for the liberal vacancy in the Superior Court of Electoral Justice ( TSJE).
The viralized photographs were of the past liberal internal elections, where Efraín Alegre himself asked the alleged chartist Ancho Ramírez, leader of list 15, for his support in votes and resources for the candidacy.
Unexpectedly on Tuesday afternoon, the position of Efraín was made known through a post, who finally turns his back on the referent who a few months ago was an “ally and friend” in his campaign.
“For Paciello, the CN is useful in bathrooms and toilets, but of no value to the judiciary. Some resemblance to the death amendment, ask the boss”, says the post by the president of the PLRA.

The question is: Why did Efraín Alegre ask for and accept the support of a supposed Chartist to get votes for his campaign? Given the striking betrayal, it remains up for debate if the president of the Liberals disqualifies his enemies for the simple fact of not aligning himself with his claims. It would not be the first time that the leader of the Liberals has divided the team due to simple personal whims that serve his political interests.
Yesterday morning, the Council of the Judiciary began the process of selecting the candidates for the Superior Court of Electoral Justice (TSJE) for the design of the list that will be subsequently sent to the Senate.
Among the main candidates are also senators Salyn Buzarquis and Hermelinda Alvarenga and former senator Emilio Camacho. Everything indicates that Ancho Ramírez would be the chosen one, since he has political consensus.
