VILLA EL SALVADOR PREVAILED PREVAILED CHANGE ON CONTINUOUS
AS BOTH IN LIMA VILLA EL SALVADOR
By: Walter Montañez Vargas
The Metropolitan Lima Municipal elections, won by SUZANNE VILLARAN, unless there is voter fraud, who represents the coalition of leftist parties in its different nuances. That way the change was imposed. In this electoral contest was defeated the recalcitrant and reactionary right, represented by Lourdes Flores, with it, after almost 20 years lost to Lima it was his electoral stronghold. And in Villa El Salvador won James Porter, who represented the "no continuity." We must bear in mind that Villa El Salvador was the bastion Michel Azcueta, who ruled together with his sons-in: Jaime Zea, Martin Pumar and Jhony Rodriguez, for over two decades.
CHANGE IN LIMA
After he left Kouri of the race, Lourdes, to see that Susan was leaning as its new competitor, drew a line. Stating that it (right) represented progress, modernity, while Villa, referring to the leftist forces, represented the ideas stale, the class struggle. Then, Lourdes, to draw the "line", was implying that the fight was between the right and left. Right CONTINUOUS representing (in the neoliberal economic model that generates exclusion) and the left represents the change (which seeks social justice and this is expressed in a fair and equitable redistribution of wealth that is generated and not in a few hands).
To conquer the city of Lima chair the right candidate, used the news media to demolish the figure of Susan mercilessly. This occurred until the day of elections. Susana is openly blamed red, terrorist, she would come to total chaos, ungovernable. Only failed car bombs were posted to blame the candidate Force Social. This evil hammering out a daily front-page newspaper La Razon, Mail, Express, Extra, etc. To this we must add the thousands of tons of leaflets scattered around Lima where Susana was connected to the FARC and Sendero Luminoso. All this made the voters, especially undecided voters, had panic, it began to support Lourdes, making the corrupt right candidate to grow in the polls to close to Susan. Those sympathetic to Susan, who was about 40% of the electorate, held firm, paid no attention to the lies spread right against the left represented by Susana. From all this, we can take a reading, that the people of Lima you are losing the fear of the left, despite its demonization. And that should alarm the right presidential candidate in 2011, as "faenones" could end.
CHANGE IN VILLA EL SALVADOR (VES).
Franciscan Despite a campaign conducted by Social Forces (SF) in Villa El Salvador, Susana, he defeated Lourdes. This was possible thanks to the neighbors, who sympathized with other forces, in particular, Alliance for Progress, Peru Possible and APRA, made use of crossover voting. They, in town, voted massively for Susana. Susana otherwise lost in the district. Those who made a direct vote by Social Force: Bernaola at Villa and Susana Lima were not many.
in Villa El Salvador, Social Forces behind the LEV, we grouped the different groups formally left the district: Lima for All, MNI, Tierra y Libertad. To this, other neighbors joined in stores policies: Carlos Rodriguez, Claudia Espetia, Miguel Tupalaya, Hector Castro, Isais chains, among other neighbors. This was, on the last day of coordination of ombudsmen. At that time, all those present had a fellowship, there was no McCarthyism against anyone. All worked with the same policy objective. At the end of that meeting we heard a slogan Rosette's body to the right "The people united will never be defeated."
In this election, I enrolled at the last minute, as ombudsman of FS, most of all to defend the votes of Susana Lima, sure that step had to defend the votes of Bernaola, but did not vote for him. I make clear that no military in any game that integrates FS. My vote was for who could be near the end of the continuum, in this case, vote for James Porter, who does not know him personally. Many residents wanted the change, they wanted to end once and for all, the continuity (the same style of city government.) Villa El Salvador had matured politically, it pushed for a candidate with new face, to bring a new kind of municipal leadership. This was perceived slightly in the previous municipal elections, but to his fate, and Michel, and James, they realized that, the neighbors thought they could easily manipulate a millionaire to relieve propaganda office.
Mozo Now that we have as mayor, we hope that their government, more than anything, is concerted and transparent, working in coordination with grassroots organizations. Otherwise we will have more of the same. In this, the leftist groups VES, united in FS, should be on the lookout. The unity of the left should be designed merely as electoral and become an instrument builder of the unity of the people. To do this, there are favorable conditions can not be missed. The unity of the people of VES could ensure that the new municipal administration for the people rule.
