Sumar's congressional spokeswoman, Veronica Martinez Barbero, and the Secretary of State for Social Rights, Rosa Martinez.

The Secretary of State for Social Rights, Rosa Martínez , and the spokeswoman for Sumarre in Congress, Veronica Martínez Barbero , announced on Friday that they will stand as candidates to lead the party in a unitary manner at the general assembly to be held on July 11.

With this announcement, this political couple, which had been gaining strength within the party in recent days, has been officially confirmed in order to take over the leadership of the party .

Intersectoral unity

The purpose of the joint candidacy is to build unity between the various sectors within the party in order to overcome the deep internal crisis in the organization.

In fact, the official registration of the leadership list will take place in the next few days, as it will be an integration list. These sources have stressed that this is the majority consensus among party members.

Internal tension

This candidacy comes in the midst of an internal conflict that has erupted following the resignation of former Secretary of Organization Laura Moreno, with harsh criticismof Lara Hernández, Suber's general coordinator.

In a letter sent to managers, Moreno explained that an internal investigation was under way against Hernandez over allegations of degrading treatment of workers.

For the time being, the current General Coordinator has not clarified whether he will choose to remain in charge of the party or remain in the leadership, or whether, on the contrary, he will make the decision to leave office.

Sources in the critical sector against Hernandez say he has lost a lot of support, and it will be very difficult for him to be back on the Executive Committee while this investigation process is open.

The deadline for nominations to the Coordinating Group, the party's highest governing body, will be 30 June, while nominations will be officially published on 5 July.
