Members of Vote Receiving Boards (JRV) in Antiguo Cuscatlán reported on Sunday morning that they have not been allowed to set up in voting centers in the municipality, despite having accreditations and assignments from the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE) itself.
At the voting center of the Albert Einstein University, several members of the JRV denounced that people from Nuevas Ideas entered with the help of members of the National Civil Police (PNC) in the early morning, before what was stipulated by law, and formed tables scrutiny with personnel who were not accredited. Meanwhile, PNC agents did not allow the entry of representatives of opposition parties under the passive gaze of the electoral prosecutors, until when the tables had been armed exclusively with the clan awning.
The representative of Nuevas Ideas for the Municipal Electoral Board (JEM), Gabriel García, did not allow people with accreditation granted by the TSE to form tables and hid himself by telling representatives of the opposition parties that this was because his people, of New Ideas, had arrived first.
Mario Monroy, a member of the JEM from Antiguo Cuscatlán, explained to journalists that Nuevas Ideas personnel were being left, by force and with police help, outside the JRVs that were assigned by the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE) itself.
At the voting center of the Walther Thilo Deininger school, they report that in several JRVs people with addresses from another municipality have been appointed and legally accredited people have been denied their positions.
According to the Electoral Code, JRV members must be from the same address where the voting center is.
The candidate for La Libertad Este for ARENA, Milago Navas, asked on her social networks that the rights of those assigned be respected and that voting be allowed in a calm environment.
I invite the Minister’s team to leave the bullying and arrogance to the adults, we must respect them and make this day a civic holiday, not a political war 🙏 pic.twitter.com/kh8OlPUfuw
