The commissions that have been meeting since last Wednesday to settle the internal conflict in the PRD have passed the ball to Miguel Vargas and Hipolito Mejia so they may reach a consensus on the issues that the two groups have discussed.
According to Jose (Neney) Cabrera from the Vargas group, the commissions drew up a document in which they reached "a level of approximation" on the conflict that followed the results of the convention that gave the nomination to Mejia.
"We wish to announce to the country that we have reached a level of approximation that allows us to send a document to our candidates, so that in the next few days, they will announce to the country the definitive agreement that will allow us to construct the necessary unity", he said, as spokesman for both groups. According to Diario Libre, he did not want to provide any other details on the points that were discussed and included in the document and about which Vargas and Mejia will have to come to an arrangement that will put an end to the conflict.
As reported in Hoy, Vargas gave the Mejia group three proposals to accept the results of the March primary that declared Hipolito Mejia the winner with 56.3% of the votes to 46.3% of Vargas. According to Janet Camilo, vice president of the PRD, the proposals were:
1) Annulment of the primary.
2) Contracting of an international firm to audit the voting list used in the 6 March convention.
3) For the losing pre-candidate to be named presidential candidate for the party in 2016, to choose the vice presidential candidate for 2012, and to be assigned 50% of the posts in a future PRD government and named president of the party until 2017.
