Governors slow down pressure for Vice Presidency, says Bachi Núñez

As reported by ABC Color, a significant strategic adjustment is underway within the Honor Colorado movement. The Council of Governors, initially eager to formalize their vice-presidential pick, has opted for a more measured approach, deciding to defer the announcement until after the upcoming municipal elections. This 'change of helm,' as Congress President Basilio 'Bachi' Núñez described it, reflects a new consensus among departmental leaders. Núñez himself had previously advocated for waiting for the municipal results before settling national candidacies, a stance now embraced by the Council. The focus remains on ensuring Pedro Alliana has a strong running mate, with Núñez confident that Alliana will engage in dialogue with party leadership to select the best candidate. While Juan Carlos Baruja is mentioned as a strong contender due to his experience and poll numbers, the ultimate decision rests with Alliana in consultation with party elders. Furthermore, the article touches upon the internal politics of the Colorado Party, with Núñez expressing his support for Horacio Cartes' re-election as head of the ANR's Governing Board, citing Cartes' considerable popularity within the party.

Las elecciones municipales son muy importantes. Lo que antes era una urgencia, hoy es una puja amistosa, que espero siga siendo amistosa, y confío en que vamos a llegar a buen puerto.
