The governor of La Rioja, Ricardo Quintelapresented the “Federalism and Justice” list before the Electoral Board of the Justicialist Party to fight for the presidency of the space on November 17. The news comes after the release of Cristina Kirchnerwho used his social networks to call for unity in the middle of an internal conflict with Axel Kicillof. The Buenos Aires president has not yet explained who he supports in the race.

“Today the presentation of the candidacy for the presidency of the PJ was made official through the designated representatives Jorge Yoma and Daniel Llermanos. ‘Federalism and Justice’ to confront the savage adjustment measures of the very official,” Llermanos published alongside the official document. Last Monday, the former president confirmed her candidacy to preside over the National PJ and, in a letter, made a brief review of the recent presidencies to explain the present of the Justicialist party.

“I am willing,” summarized the former president, after thanking the operational clamor that was generated about her figure in recent days. Legislators and union leaders had openly expressed that she should be the new president of the Justicialist Party, after the failed passage of Alberto Fernández. “I want to tell you that I am willingonce again, to accept the challenge of debating in unity because if I am also clear about something, it is that there is no one left over here. However, unity needs direction and a project to build the best possible Peronism in an that has become impossible for the majority of its inhabitants.”

As advanced Infobaethis Wednesday between nine and ten in the morning, the private secretary of Cristina Kirchner He dialed the phone number of one of the secretaries of Ricardo Quintela. They attended to him. In a brief conversation he told him that the former president wanted to talk to him. Topic: Elections in the National PJ. The Riojan’s trusted man promised to convey the message.

The governor of La Rioja never returned the call. He also didn’t write him a message. She acted as if nothing had happened, which angered the former president, who wanted to meet to arrange a unity list and avoid competition. “He is a liar. “It doesn’t do anything it says.”they assured at the Patria Institute. They refer to Quintela’s promise to resign from the governorship if Javier Milei won, an action that he never carried out, and to the private announcement that he had made to several of his interlocutors, that in the event that CFK was a candidate, he He would get out of the competition and respect his presidential inauguration.

Quintela was at an event yesterday in Avellaneda, where he received the support of the mayor Jorge Ferraresi. In that meeting, as in several that she led in different provinces of the country, several leaders and activists approached her to ask her to keep her candidacy standing and compete against the former head of state. Let him fight. “It’s time,” they repeated.

The Riojan began to convince himself that he has to compete. That the time has come to discuss positions at the polls. At the Instituto Patria they see a connection between Quintela’s position and that of Axel Kicillof’s political group. They are convinced that they are looking for a confrontation with CFK and that no one is hiding it anymore.

With his silence, Buenos Aires governor He gave a message inside the PJ. He did not support Cristina Kirchner’s candidacy. “If he does not express himself in favor of the person who brought him to where he is, then it is because he supports the other candidacy,” they analyzed close to the former president.

Furthermore, they sense that he is applying the same modus operandi that La Cámpora denounces as part of his strategy to distance himself from the Kirchnerist leader: “He remains silent and those who are at his side speak.” Those targeted are Andrés “Cuervo” Larroque and Jorge Ferraresi, whom they see behind Quintela’s candidacy and the confrontation with Máximo Kirchner.
