“Do I smell elections? Not today, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be tomorrow.” Cateno De Luca continues with the catchphrase, but during the press conference at Palazzo Zanca both he and Basile seem to open up more on the topic. “The choices are always linked to political and administrative reasoning, and I believe that all the choices made for the good of the city were made with conscience and seriousness.
Even possibly early elections would be done conscientiously, aimed at the administration of a city that today still has a mayor”, said Basile, while De Luca seems to take it for granted that Marcello Scurria will be his competitor as the center-right mayoral candidate: “We will have fun in the electoral campaign, but someone will start as a reject of the rejects, given that they will arrive after some names that later fail”.
De Luca also has his say on the agreement between two exes, Ismael La Vardera and Vincenzo La Cava: “Neither my friend Ismaele La Vardera nor my friend Vincenzo La Cava are a problem, they are the ones who will eventually have to explain to the city that they were candidates with a movement and today they are not, without prejudice to the fact that who can take it for granted that one day they won’t be able to support Basile?”
