Looking ahead to the 2024 presidential elections, the former vice-president of the National Primary Commission, María Carolina Uzcátegui, reaffirmed that 1 to 3 days after the registration of candidates before the National Electoral Council (CNE), that sector does not have one.

“The reality is that we don't have a candidate that we can present, no later than March 25, and of course we are not clear about what we are going to do on July 28,” Uzcategui criticized, pointing out that “if things had been done right” in the primaries, today they could have a candidate to run.

In that sense, according to information from AlbertoRodNews, he reported different facts that obscured and that were not taken into account in the Primaries process. “When we were summoned to be part of the National Primaries Commission, there were two big unknowns: With the CNE or without the CNE? And what to do with the disabled? The Platform simply decided to ignore it and leave it to those of us who made up the Commission the responsibility of making decisions in this regard, but the truth is that not even we had the possibility of making that decision, the circumstance and personal interests were leading to documents not being discussed for the replacement of the candidate,” he said.

He also reported that the “C omission, like the process and even the results of the Primary, ended up being kidnapped”.

She stressed that all these inconsistencies led to her deciding to resign from that Commission at the time. “I did it out of my distress, seeing that the process was becoming a project to privilege personal agendas over collective interests,” he said.

For this reason, the opposition called on this sector of the right to demand “seriousness and curb the ego”; also to “make sensible decisions” in the face of the reality that they have to face today.

Recall that during the opposition primaries process, Uzcátegui submitted her resignation as vice-president of the National Primary Commission, because she considered that the process being carried out by the Venezuelan opposition did not have the necessary conditions and guarantees.

In addition, it is important to note that while this organizational process was progressing, Uzcátegui was not the only one to resign, other presidents and members of that Commission at the national level also moved away from that event and abandoned their positions due to the irregularities they observed in it.
