Roberto Rosario, a member of the Political Directorate of the Fuerza del Pueblo (FP) party, said that the current government has a “Botero” complex, as the president of that political organization, Leonel Fernández, has indicated, because “for them everything is great.” .
This is because, according to the political leader of the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM), since he came to government he has taken on the task of saying that nothing that had worked. “I am convinced that the government of Luis Abinader believes that we are in 1942, and that they are Columbus and we are the aborigines,” Rosario said.
Rosario also argued that although the issue of security is global, if the levels of insecurity now are compared with those of the governments of former President Leonel Fernández, an abysmal difference would be noted.
Regarding the ruling of the Constitutional Court that declared the electronic vote unconstitutional, the former president of the Central Electoral Board said that it is a correct decision because that voting model affects the secrecy of the vote.
“The constitution says that the vote is personal, direct and secret, but in electronic systems the secrecy of the vote will always be at risk,” he said. In addition, he explained that it is no longer direct, because when the vote is cast, the machine redirects it. “That automated vote only served to do what was done to Leonel Fernández in the 2019 elections,” he commented on the PLD primaries in 2019.
