The internal elections They are getting closer and the Wide Front You may still have modifications in your competitors to lead the presidential formula that seeks to recover the government in Uruguay in October. In this regard, doubts surround the mayor of Jump, Andrés Limawhich could follow the steps of Mario Bergara by declining his application in pursuit of a strongly polarized electionalthough its intention is to present itself as a third option that represents the militancy of the interior of the country.

For the inmates there are 26 days left: very little and, at the same time, a lot. During that time, the final movements and modifications to the lists that are finally presented on June 30 may still occur. In the case of Broad Front, that began its own race with four pre-candidates, the future of Lima’s candidacy is what can generate an important reorganization: just as Bergara aligned himself with Yamandu Orsi seeing themselves far behind the electoral expectations of the sector in a polarized contest that will decide between the former mayor of cannelloni and Carolina Cosse; The man from Salta could step aside to support the mayor of Montevideo in the use of his license.

Is this really a possibility? According to the coordinator of the Lima campaign, Ruben Villaverde, The issue has been “under discussion among the groups.” However, he stated on the Informal Breakfast program that a decision of that type would “surprise him a lot,” in addition to the fact that the lists have already been made, so it would be a waste to change his mind now.

In Villaverde’s opinion, if the decision were made to support Cosse, two scenarios could open up: on the one hand, “the word of Lima would be on the floor, because he campaigned throughout the country pointing out the importance of claim inside“, that we have a more balanced country, that all realities are taken into account.”

“On the other hand, the Federal Artistic Meeting -group led by Lima- as such would break up because some would be more inclined to accompany Orsi and others to accompany Cosse, and others directly to neither of the two. The project aims in the long term to create a group with significant weight within the Broad Front, and that project would be aborted. We aim to try to reach the Senate”, he pointed.

In that sense, the objective is to achieve 10% of the votes internally. “We are very close,” said the campaign coordinator, in this regard. According to the latest survey of Figure, The mayor of Salto has 5% voting intention.

The solution for Cosse?

Although Villaverde ruled out the possibility that Lima would support Cosse, sacrificing his own pre-candidacy, the hypothetical scenario in which the mayor of Salto lines up behind the pre-candidate could be the answer that she is looking for to get even closer to Orsi in the polls. which continues first.

Last week, the former vice president and leader of the Popular Participation Movement (MPP) Lucía Topolansky questioned the electoral projection that the mayor of Montevideo may have in the interior departments of the country, especially after she “dispensed” with the Congress of Mayors. Although Cosse maintained that such questions are not going to distract her from the “more important issues on which to focus,” the truth is that additional support from the heart of the territory would not hurt in terms of votes either.

In that sense, the only pre-candidate who is not from the Metropolitan area decided to support her, she could broaden her reach and be an even stronger alternative to what, for the moment, seems to be Orsi’s inevitable candidacy.
