The Party of dictator Daniel Ortega, the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN), is at the worst level of acceptance in its history, only 16 percent of Nicaraguans agree to sympathize with that group. Sandinismo-Orteguismo is so bad that it looks like a “decomposing corpse,” compared the opposition leader Héctor Mairena, while other opponents believe that the process of disintegration of the dictatorship party is irreversible since they are even practicing “political cannibalism” in within that group.
For Mairena, leader of the political movement Unión Democrática Renovadora (Unamos), the data revealed by the latest Cid Gallup poll indicates that “we are facing a dictatorship and a party that are a decomposing corpse, which is beginning to crack from within,” exemplified the opponent.
Mairena believes that it could not be otherwise because “Ortega is suffering from an internal crisis, in what until a few years ago were its broad bases, because the Sandinistas know that Ortega and Murillo are leading the country and their own followers to the precipice.” , he remarked.

For her part, Tamara Dávila, a former politician exiled in the United States, agreed with Mairena in pointing out that the Cid Gallup poll shows “the deterioration and decline of a dictatorship that is leading the country to a cliff.”
Dávila, leader of Unamos, points out that, in Ortega’s regime, “that solid nucleus that was seen before” no longer exists. He recalled that it must be taken into account that the FSLN dropped from having an acceptance of 20% in January of this year to 16% only 4 months later. “That, what he tells you is that within the Sandinista Front there is a crisis. Ortega and Murillo are not only isolated internationally, but are also more weakened at their base and in their own structures,” Dávila opined.
Meanwhile, Enrique Martínez, leader of the Blue and White National Unity and spokesman for the Platform for Democratic Unity (PUDE), believes that the repressive mechanisms established by the Ortega regime in the national territory not only go against opponents, but also also against those who, even if they are from his party, could endanger the power of the dictatorial family.

Martínez values that, even, the level of sympathy towards the FLN could be less than the 16% revealed by the Cid Gallup poll, this because, according to the opponent, some respondents were able to hide their true opinion for fear of being victims of reprisals. .
Meanwhile, for Luis Blandón, also from Unamos, the Cid Gallup survey reflects the “failure to impose itself through violence to remain in power” and stressed that “this is an opportunity for the opposition to continue organizing and reinventing itself, taking advantage of the fact that more and more, they (Ortega and Murillo), are in serious internal struggles ».
