The fight for the third place for the presidential candidacy for free nomination continues to be hard-fought between the pre-candidates Francisco Carreira and Eduardo Quiros who have already achieved 100% of the necessary signatures required by the Electoral Code to be on the May 5 ballot 2024.

Although both achieved the first objective, to reach the corresponding signatures, only one can become an official candidate in July 2023.

Carrerira, until  December 25 at 6:00 am, had 40,734 accepted signatures, while his closest rival, Quiros, accumulated 39,946, only a difference of 788 signatures.

However, the pre-candidate and former representative Katleen Levy follows these two closely, although she will have to make a greater effort if she wants to be in the fight for the last place that would put her in the race to reach the Presidential Palace says TVN.

Levy , until this last count, has collected 30,826 signatures, 78.45%, followed by Maribel Gordón with 28,321 (72.07%.)

While, in the first place, the representative of the Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD), Zulay Rodríguez, remains firm with 64,936 accepted signatures.

Melitón Arrocha is established in second place with 59,286 collected entries.

Rodríguez, Arrocha, and Carreira must keep up the pace of collecting signatures, until July 31, if they want to be the ones on the 2024 presidential ballot.
