Even though there is more than a month left for the general elections to which Ciego de Ávila will bring 23 candidates for deputies, the head municipality —with five representatives for that national seat— begins to adjust a process in which some 117,000 voters will participate.

That is one of the main concepts, "involve everyone," said Julio Gómez Casanova, first secretary of the Party in the municipality of Ciego de Avila, who presented to a large audience the strategy to ensure popular participation in the March 26 elections.

Hence, the secretary anticipated the 124 constituencies of the territory play an important role and each delegate, together with Party cadres and other community factors, should join the same in a "house to house" to update lists and explain the importance of the process, than the disclosure of who the candidates are and how they came to be proposed.

 "Once again we have to emphasize that our candidates are there, not because of influence or fortune, but because of their individual merits, because of the work they do and their virtues, characteristics that say much more than the biographical synthesis that will be published on February 25." It will be placed in several places in each constituency”, Julio Gómez Casanova emphasized.

The meeting - also chaired by the five candidates for delegates from this municipality, headed by the Deputy Prime Minister, Jorge Luis Perdomo Di-Lella and the first secretary of the Party in the province, Liván Izquierdo Alonso - allowed those present to be informed of the main economic and social indicators.

On such results and deficiencies, Liván Izquierdo Alonso pointed out, is that we have to act. We cannot neglect the generation of income. The municipality, he said, has to continue with a surplus, earn more than what it spends, and has to produce more food and hire as much meat and milk as possible... "Only with commitment and results will we be able to defend the Revolution," he concluded.
