The first day of applications for the opposition primaries on October 22 ended and no candidate completed the process. The period will last until June 23.
From this Monday, June 5, the period of applications for the primaries, scheduled for October 22, is open. To date, there are 13 pre-candidates who have expressed their willingness to measure themselves in these elections, where the unitary representative of the opposition will be chosen for the 2024 presidential elections.
However, during the first day of applications, none of them completed the process before the National Commission for Primaryconfirmed the request to SuchWhich. The period of applications will be extended until June 23. To complete it, the candidate must sign a commitment plan to the process.
The confirmed applicants so far are María Corina Machado, Benjamin Rausseo, Carlos Prosperi, Henrique Capriles, Freddy Superlano, Andrés Velásquez, Tamara Adrián, Delsa Solórzano, Roberto Henríquez, César Pérez Vivas, Andrés Caleca, Luis Balo Farías and César Almeida. The governor of Zulia, Manuel Rosales, has not yet announced his aspiration, although his Un Nuevo Tiempo party has told him to sign up for the presidential race.

Of those, most have the support of a political organization that nominates them. The regulation of the primaries establishes that the registration without a party implies the collection of signatures that support the aspiration, a path that the pre-candidate Rausseo took.
The rest have the support of some awning that registers them: Vente will register María Corina Machado, Acción DSemocrática to Prosperi, Primero Justicia to Capriles, Voluntad Popular to Superlano, La Causa R to Andrés Velásquez, United for Dignity goes with Tamara Adrián, Encuentro Ciudadano with its founder Delsa Solórzano, Copei-ODCA promotes Roberto Henríquez, Concertación Ciudadana promotes César Pérez Vivas, MPV does the same with Andrés Caleca, and UPP89 supports César Almeida.
The Neighborhood Force party will not participate in the October primaries as revealed SuchWhichdespite having announced that would bring own candidate. The awning has avoided confirming the exclusive of this newspaper. For months he had threatened to launch the mayor of El Hatillo Elías Sayegh as a candidate, but for several weeks “they got off that bus”, generating complaints in the regional leadership for the decision to “deactivate” the work for the primaries.
However, the vote on October 22 will be without party colors or cards but only by names and surnames of standard-bearers, according to the president of the National Primary CommissionJesus Maria Casal, to The Electoral Guachimán.
The Prosperi and Enríquez campaign commandos had proposed that everyone register on the same day, as a symbol of unity. This Tuesday will be the second day of applications before the National Primary Commission.
