Following an extensive grassroots nomination process, Diosdado Cabello, general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), presented the preliminary list of mayoral and municipal council candidates from the Simón Bolívar Great Patriotic Pole (GPPSB) for the upcoming July 27 elections.During a press conference Saturday, June 14, Cabello revealed 86 mayoral candidates. He announced that the remaining candidates would be disclosed in coming hours when the complete list is published on the PSUV website.“We held an open consultation last Saturday, June 7, in 47,000 communities nationwide, only possible because we have a political structure. We received 155,000 nominations, including 122,000 for council members and 32,000 for mayors,” Cabello explained about the internal process.He added they established parameters “complying with the PSUV Congress guidelines, which set an extraordinary example for governor and National Assembly deputy elections, as the numbers demonstrate.”Candidate listThe nominees for the July 27 elections include:CaracasLibertador municipality: Carmen Teresa Meléndez Rivas.Amazonas stateAtures: Quisi Alexandra Amaro de Rumbos.Anzoátegui stateAnaco: Jesús David Ríos Castellanos.Barcelona: Sugey Yolani Herrera Mogollón.Cantaura: Gabriel Antonio Hernández Trillo.Guanipa: Pedro Luis Martínez López.El Tigre: Alberto José Gago Betancourt.Sotillo, Puerto La Cruz: Jesús Rafael Marcano Tábata.Apure stateGuasdualito: José Angel Ramirez Segura.Achaguas: José Gregorio Rebolledo Juarez.San Fernando: Joel Lisandro Solórzano Solórzano.Aragua stateGirardot: Rafael José Morales Cazorla.José Félix Ribas: Juan Carlos Sánchez Campos.Santiago Mariño: Carlos Eduardo Guzmán.Villa de Cura: Anaís del Valle Palacios Pantoja.Barinas stateAntonio José de Sucre, Socopó: Salvador Guerrero Márquez.Barinas capital: Argenis José Aldasoro Freites.Pedraza: Jessica Geraldin Lalama Milán.Alberto Arvelo Torrealba: Alexandre José Camacho Díaz.Bolívar stateCiudad Piar: Nairobi Jakeline Abreu.Caroní: Janial Alí Alonso Vivas.Angostura del Orinoco: Sergio de Jesús Hernández.Upata: Ornela Valentina Arvelaes.Carabobo stateCarlos Arvelo: Angel Daniel Bilbao Santoyo.Guacara: Johan Manuel Castañeda Calderón.Libertador: Óscar Santiago Orsilli Pelgrón.Los Guayos: Marbelis Johannis Moreno Caldera.Naguanagua: Elizabeth Arianna Niño Arteaga.San Diego: Marcos Antonio Campos Flores.Puerto Cabello: Juan Carlos Betancourt Uribe.Valencia: Dina Andreina Castillo Ortega.Cojedes stateZamora: Jeanette Catherine Laya.Tinaquillo: Jose Antonio Mujíca Parraga.Delta Amacuro stateTucupita: Asnardo José Rodriguez Santaella.Falcón statePunto Fijo: Luis Manuel Piña Peña.Tucacas: Ibes José Marcano Salgado.Miranda: Henry Josué Hernández Hernández.Guárico stateCalabozo: Jany Alfreina Álvarez Mirabal.San Juan de los Morros: Katherine Hellen Guanipa Miranda.Pedro Saraza: Carlos Enrique Castillo.Leonardo Infante: Cristian José Norato.La Guaira stateVargas: José Manuel Suárez Maldonado.Lara stateIribarren: Yanez Enrique Agüero.Morán: Félix Ramón Linares Pérez.Cabudare: Derbi José Guedez Torres.Carora: Lasmik Leonor Verde Medina.Mérida stateEl Vigía: Miguelangel Reyes Herrera.Campo Elías: Jesús Alberto Rodriguez Velásquez.Mérida capital: Nelson Leandro Álvarez León.Miranda stateCharallave: Yuismar Coromoto Hernández Pérez.Guaicaipuro: Farith Eduardo Fraija Norwood.Santa Teresa: Frainer Jesús Pulido Fuentes.Ocumare: Dayana Báez Báez.Santa Lucía: Omar José León.Guarenas: Antonio José Galíndez Ballester.Sucre: Diógenes Lara.Higuerote: Olga Josefina Pacheco Casañe.Cúa: Jonathan Alexander Herrera Campos.Guatire: Hugo Ramón Martínez Pateti.Monagas stateZamora: Óscar Cedeño Febres.Maturin capital: Ana Michelle Fuentes Morfe.Nueva Esparta stateSan Juan: Kendy Manuel Graterol Cordero.Arismendi: Alí Jesús Romero Farías.Maneiro: Alejandro Ramón Navarro Velasquez.Mariño: Eneas Rafael González RodríguezPortuguesa stateAraure: Maria Celeste Rodríguez.Guanare: Óscar Enrique Noboa Crespo.Páez: José Ángel López García.Sucre stateCarúpano: Julio César Rodríguez Millán.Cumaná: Pedro Germán Figueroa Medina.Táchira stateSan Antonio: Sandra Milena Sánchez Prada.Cárdenas: Marta Rosa Gallo Torres.Rubio: Neliber Josefina Lugo Torres.San Cristóbal capital: Silfredo Gregorio Zambrano Vásquez.Trujillo stateBoconó: Alejandro Alfonzo García Castellanos.Trujillo: Carlos Alberto Terán Montilla.Valera: Alfreddy José Moreno Silva.Yaracuy stateChivacoa: Carlos Aberto González Viscaya.Nirgua: Miguel José César Sánchez.Yaritagua: Giovanni Rafael Parra.San Felipe: Roger Antony Dasa Acosta.Zulia stateCabimas: Fran Jaguar Cabello Castro.Ciudad Ojeda: Misiel Xavier Dominguez.San Rafael del Moja: Edgar Segundo Labarca Manarez.Maracaibo capital: Dimartino Tarquinio Giancarlo.San Francisco: Hector Elís Soto López.President Maduro on Israeli Aggression Against Iran: Venezuela Says No to this Nazi ZionismCabello noted that the announced candidates represent the most populous cities in each state, “not necessarily the most important, but those with largest electoral populations.” He added: “We’ll announce the remainder through state political teams, and the complete list will be available on our party’s website.” (Alba Ciudad)Translation: Orinoco TribuneOT/JRE/JB
