Becoming mayor of Avellino. Easier said than done these days. Yet aspirants, in these hours, are starting to sprout like mushrooms.
“My dream as a child was to be the mayor“, Gianluca sang Party on 10 June 2019, in the jubilation of the square celebrations for the election to the highest seat in the Municipality of Avellino.
That the Festa will repeat that dream again this year seems truly unlikely, but not impossible, considering the judicial earthquake which hit Palazzo di Città which currently forces it to house arrest. In the Monday 6 May the hearing is scheduled at the Review Court, where the judges will have to decide whether to cancel, limit or confirm the precautionary measure against the former mayor.
And this is why his loyalists, while saying they are ready with two, three, four lists, faithfully await the fate of their leader to decide what to do and the choice of the top figure to lead the teams. Continuing to dream of the direct entry into the field of the outgoing mayor.
Meanwhile, his deputy, Laura, also harbors the dream Nargiafter having experienced the thrill of living the dream of being called Mayor, in the 20 days between the day of Festa’s resignation and the deadline for withdrawing it.
Nargi, although she disappeared from the radar of her very active social networks from the day after the dissolution of the City Council and even more after the house search from which n. was reachedon the same day as Festa’s arrest, it seems that he continues to plot behind the scenes with the firm desire to take the “giant” step.
He would have the list ready “We love Avellino”slogan used for the marketing campaign launched for the department of commerce and tourism to which she had been delegated (in addition to the person ed.): according to some press reports leaked in the last few hours she would also have decided to run alone, but in any case it remains to be understand, even to her, the fate of her political leader Festa.
Meanwhile, again according to news leaking into the city, he has already met, and not once, important references from the Democratic Party and the 5 Star Movement, parties that support Tonino’s candidacy for mayor Gengaro.
And even going home”wide field”, net of the difficult formalization of the top candidacy, now the real race would be to identify the candidates to be included in the lists. After the armed truce with the provincial leaders of PD and the electoral campaign that some outgoing Democratic councilor has already started, the difficulties in ticking all the boxes of the various lists in support of him would be considerable.
This is why Gengaro launched in the last few hours an appeal to sign the lists for the presentation of candidatures, invoking civic sense.
In the meantime, however, he has found the group againi Avellino Takes Part cwho tomorrow with More Europe Avellino in a press conference together with the mayoral candidate he will make the support official
Doctor Aldo is also competing for the position of mayor D’Andrea at the head of the list “For Avellino Unione Popolare”, and the lawyer Vittorio Boccieri who was identified as the head of the team “PAF Progetto Avellino Futura and PCI Italian Communist Party“, after illness that struck Luigi Urciuoli and which inevitably, at least for the moment, forces him not to be part of the game.
The civic project to support the journalist’s candidacy is also in progress Rino Genovese who will be on the field, as well as with a list directly connected to him as a candidate for mayor, also with those expressed by the President of the Us Avellino Angelo Antonio D‘Augustine ( Forza Avellino), d Livio Petitto (Moderates and Reformists), Sabino Morano (The swallow).
He wants to run the party alone Brothers of Italy with the candidacy of Modestino Iandoli, as well as the UDC with Gennaro Romei.
In this context, therefore, the candidates for the office of mayor would be at least seven, it being understood that the presentation of the lists is exactly one week away ( 10-11 May 2024) and in this period of time everything could still change. As much as the clarifications in the field could find agreements and therefore narrow the list of mayoral candidates, the opposite could happen.
