Buenos Aires City Mayor Mauricio Macri re-launched the campaign of the candidates for lawmakers with a conciliatory message, in which he also referred to the return of his ex-ally in the 2009 election, Felipe Solá, to the pro-government party.
“We are going to work in harmony, analyzing in what we might coincide, without chasing the ghosts from the past,” he indicated during a rally in which he called for the people to cut the ballots and vote for the head of the PRO party in the Lower House, Federico Pinedo.
The City Mayor held the rally at Las Heras Park holding a huge scissor made of cardboard in his hand, where he asked the citizens to “accompany” his candidates in the elections of October 23.
“It’s always better to be balanced and PRO will always work to fins what’s good and try to solve what’s wrong. That’s why we’ll need for you to accompany us. We are running alone, without presidential candidate,” he continued.
Referring to the return of Solá to the pro-government bloc, Macri assured that “I feel pity, but it’s his opinion.”
Solá had left the Kirchnerite party after the rural conflict in 2008. A year later, he shared the electoral alliance with the head of the PRO and lawmaker Francisco De Narváez, by which they had defeated late ex President Néstor Kirchner in the mid term elections.
