The former mayor of Canelones is poised to win the internal election, beating Carolina Cosse by 15 points.
The former mayor of Canelones, Yamandu Orsi, continues first in voting intention internally Broad Front, accumulating more endorsements than the sum of the rest of the presidential candidates, according to the latest Factum survey for the elections 2024.
It is worth highlighting that the measurement is prior to the complaint of a trans woman, filed before Justice last week for an alleged assault occurred in 2014 and, in that context, Orsi continues to occupy first place among Uruguayans who vote for the FA, bringing together 51% of the votes.
In second place, the mayor of Montevideo in use of license, Carolina Cosse, whose voting intention is 36% towards the June elections. The senator was much further behind Mario Bergara, with an 8; and the mayor of Salto, Andres Lima, which accumulates 5%.
In this way, the scenario in the internal Broad Front has remained quite stable in recent months, since the pre-candidacy of Orsi went from 49% to 51%, while that of cosse ranged between 36 and 37%, while that of Bergara and Lime They did so between 8/9% and 4/5%, respectively.
However, Eduardo Bottinelli, director of Factum, pointed out on VTV Noticias that the survey methodology does not take into account “the propensity to vote in the internal elections, but rather the public opinion as a whole, which is around three times as many as those who are actually going to vote.”
Is a joint Orsi and Cosse formula coming?
On the other hand, the two main candidates within the FA could form an eventual formula for the 2024 elections, once the internal elections are over. It is that the former mayor of cannelloni He anticipated that the possibility of going as vice president would be “nonsense,” while cosse She assured that “she would be delighted” to be the candidate for vice on a ticket headed by Orsi.
Meanwhile, the Wide Front continues to be reorganized and Bergara’s pre-candidacy recently lost the support of two sectors, such as the cases of Magnolia and Platform, who publicly announced that they will go behind Orsi’s nomination.
What happened today was different with Uruguay Assembly, who ratified his intention to accompany the senator and former Minister of Economy in the internal bid, considering that “he is the one who best represents the vision that the sector has about the country.”
