Margarita Cedeño, a prominent figure within the Dominican Liberation Party (PLD) and former Vice President of the Dominican Republic, has indicated she may seek office in the 2028 elections. When questioned by journalists, Cedeño suggested she could be a candidate for either the mayoralty or a senate position representing the National District. Her response, delivered during the XIX International Congress of Political Communication, was notably indirect. She stated, in essence, that she does not place limits on the future. Cedeño quoted her friend Agripino Núñez Collado, saying, "There is no reason to put limits on providence." She reiterated this sentiment when pressed further by reporters. These remarks were made during the congress, which is taking place on August 19 and 20 at the Catalonia Hotel Convention Center in the National District and features over 60 international speakers on marketing and communication.
