While justice tries to put the necessary locks to close the passage to those who with their hate and violence speech seek to put democracy at risk, Podemos, the group of José Luna Gálvezintends to open the door, and put a smuggling, who do not deserve another chance in our policy.
The most populist bench in Congress has just presented, at the last minute, a bill so that the electoral parties and alliances that will participate in the next elections of 2026 can freely designate, without internal elections in between, that is, by finger, by finger, to his candidate for the Presidency of the Republic or one of the two vice presidencies.
There is not everything left. The proposal presented last Wednesday 19 by Congressman Juan Burgos proposes that this ‘privileged’ on the presidential plate does not need to be affiliated with the group and participate as a guest. An initiative that has its own name and that favors nothing less than Antaur grouping that promoted his candidacy.
But in politics there is no stitch without thread. The proposal of Podemos does not seek to “strengthen the political right to be elected” as Burgos explains in his bill, but would aim that the ‘ethnocacerist’ is the presidential candidate of a group without a decent representative poster to face the Next elections.
Burgos also raises that the affiliation period for those who want to candidate in the 2026 process has expanded until July. This already won in July last year.
The project aims to modify article 24-B of the Law of Political Organizations and allow parties directly to design a member of the presidential formula and up to 20% of their candidates for Congress, regardless of whether they are affiliated or not.
“Adventurers”
José Manuel Villalobos, Executive Director of the Peruvian Institute of Electoral Law, warned that the “break” initiative with the provisions of the Law of Political Organizations that establishes that the candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidents are subject to internal election and for this Minimum of one year of affiliation to the deadline of the call for general elections, that is, July of last year.
“This would basically favor Antauro Humala who after the declaration of illegality of his party has been prevented to apply for the Presidency of the Republic, but this law would fit perfectly. The approval of this rule opens the doors to whom they are not affiliated To a party and would allow adventurers to enter politics, which is something we have always wanted to banish, ”he said.
Villalobos also questioned that it is intended to change the rules of the electoral game just a few months after the call for the general elections and commented that the project of Podemos would be approved would show a lack of seriousness from the Congress by changing rules of the game that already already They were previously established.
On the subject, the constitutional lawyer Víctor García Toma also pronounced, who declared Peru21 that the law is clear and forces candidates to submit to internal democracy mechanisms.
“If we can raise it in this way that initiative should not prosper, if the guest does not go through the duty of internal democracy would not be correct; That is not admissible in political organizations but in political kiosks and we are already tanned for that. (…) The finger designation is unacceptable, “he said.
