After Álvaro Delgado has considered the possibility that the former Minister of Health forms part of the presidential formula for the National Party, Domenech said he still has hopes that Salinas will support Guido Manini Ríos in the October elections, despite the enmity between the two politicians.
“What I would like most is that Daniel Salinas was a candidate for Town meeting“I have said this many times, and I still have hope, perhaps a little faint, that he will take up the banner of Cabildo Abierto. I only hope that Salinas will be a candidate for Cabildo,” he remarked to Teledoce.

Lucia Delgado, who leads List 7 and won the elections in August 2021. The elections there will be held on August 29.
Far from the candidacy

Regarding the possible names being considered within the party, he commented: “I cannot mention names because it is a way of frustrating candidacies. There are young men and women who I believe have all the conditions to be the vice-presidential candidates.”
“Some of the names we are considering are from the column to which I belong and others come from other groups or are independent people within the Council,” he explained and, regarding the possibility of it being someone outside of politics, he added: “No, I wish we could come up with someone from outside of politics because they are very good.”
