The president of the Chamber of Deputies says that progress has been made on the project that seeks to open the way for President Leonel Fernandez to be the PLD candidate in the 2012 presidential election. The 2010 Constitution bans consecutive presidential re-election. The PLD has set the date for the party Central Committee to announce its presidential pre-candidates as 10 April.
As reported in El Caribe, when journalists recently asked President Leonel Fernandez about moves by a group of legislators to register him as a pre-candidate, he said he was not aware of those plans and asked to be left to reflect on the subject.
Abel Martinez announced that an event would take place once thousands of Dominicans have signed a petition for President Fernandez to seek the PLD candidacy. Other leaders of the movement for re-election include senator Felix Bautista and former minister of public works Freddy Perez.
