The president of the Central Electoral Board (JCE) Julio Cesar Castanos Guzman, has announced that elections will be held in 2010, whether or not the ideal scenario is in place. At the same time, he predicted that these would be the best elections ever held in the history of the Dominican Republic, due to the JCE's accumulated know-how. When he was asked about statements made by JCE Administrative Chamber president Roberto Rosario, indicating that the next elections are in danger, Castanos Guzman said that these are "important statements" and the nation should pay attention, but, nevertheless, he believed that the ideal scenario would be to have the Party Law that addresses primaries and the JCE has more power to supervise the money and establish order in election campaigns, together with the definition of the preferential vote as soon as possible. In contrast with Rosario's repeated statement, Castanos Guzman assured reporters that there are absolutely no delays in any aspect of the calendar of preparations for the next congressional and municipal elections.
