The president of the PRD, Miguel Vargas Maldonado, postponed for Monday an address to his followers regarding his position following his dispute of the PRD party primary outcome. The electoral commission has announced that his contender, former President Hipolito Mejia won the 6 March primary. Vargas had announced a press conference for today, Friday, but postponed this for Monday after President Fernandez announced he would speak to the nation tonight. Vargas is expected to give an overview of the situation of the PRD, after two weeks of talks between commissions appointed by himself and representatives of Mejia. Vargas has said the election was rigged because members of the PLD and its close ally the PRSC voted in the election. The primary was an open primary.
Listin reports that after two weeks of talks, Mejia accepted to extend until 2014 the presidency of Vargas in the PRD. Vargas had asked to maintain the presidency through 2017.
