Ligurian final. “The decision of the provincial and regional PD not to support the Guzzi list due to the presence on the list of some people from the centre-right does not change the substance of the race for the mayoral election, as the candidate himself has clearly specified, reiterating the civic nature of his administrative project. The civic spirit was immediately evident at the presentation of the list on Friday 19th afternoon at Boncardo in front of hundreds of Finalesi of all political orientations who were also crowded outside the venue”. Clara Brichetto, Francesco Montanaro, Ornella Pesce and Delia Venerucci (resigning Finalese PD Secretary) made this known in a note.
“The decision of the PD bodies instead deserves a clarification for those who support this party in Finale Ligure – they add -. In the civic list of the mayoral candidate Andrea Guzzi, there are 3 members of the Finale Ligure PD Club who by a large majority, after a careful and long evaluation, have chosen to join the administrative project of the Guzzi list. The reasons are very clear and simple: in the current Frascherelli administration, from which Guzzi starts as deputy mayor and councilor for public works, our representatives have worked intensely for 10 years and obtained important results in the social field (for example, but not only , economic support for personal and family fragilities, Social Bar Non Uno di Meno, Ludoteca 0-99 and many others) and public finance management (decrease in municipal taxes for the lowest incomes, deferrals and discounts for everyone during the COVID crisis) ”.
“Andrea Guzzi proposes a program for the future of our city which, if supported by the majority of voters, will be able to generate a further improvement in the quality of life, compatible development and well-being for every segment of citizens. We as candidates, with some of the most competent members of the various themes, have participated in the development of this program which has among its key words solidarity, culture, sustainable development and conservation of natural resources (water, soil, renewable energy), which they reflect our values well. As members of the Finale club we could also come to understand the position of the provincial and regional bodies of the PD, but there are situations at a local level in which the motivations and the possibility of working well for the future of one’s city can prevail over ideological reasons”, they point out.
“In a civic list that has always been and not only in Finale, there are therefore citizens who are not aligned, eager to make themselves available and involved for the good of their city, and belonging to different political formations who believe in the same programme: in order not to going far was already like this on the list to support the election of Mayor Frascherelli. For this reason, the candidates, registered in the Finale PD Club, find themselves in the company of candidates belonging to other political forces, who evidently appreciated what has been done in the last 10 years and do not find the same programmatic value for the city in the centre-right alignment . We therefore await the electoral round convinced that our choice will be recognized and rewarded by the citizens of Finale who have always demonstrated, even in the so-called ‘election days’, that they know how to distinguish between administrative voting and membership voting”, they conclude.
