The electoral machine seems to be starting in the city of the spa. The official of a single candidacy are expected, the one that should unite the area of ​​the center right. Meanwhile, the real activity, the one that will allow the incetta of votes, consists in forming the lists. As per the script, the recruitment of the candidates turns into a real hunt. From one district to the other, the raking seems to have started: faces, names and consensus are sought. The method is always the same: the ideal candidate must have a solid family network and a good basin of votes to guarantee. But the association Article 21, engaged in the formation of the lists in support of the candy to mayor Antonello Avena, distances himself from this logic and says a clear “no” to the policy of the easy promises and alliances of convenience.

According to article 21, one of the evils of local politics is the figure of the so -called “bearers of votes”, often chosen by the candidate as tools at the service of those who see politics as a personal deal. A strategy that, in too many cases, has favored the rise of candidates who are skilled in changing the deployment according to the opportunities of the moment, rather than in administering with competence and vision. The Association, which will compete in the climb of the City Palace, reiterates its commitment for a different policy, based on a free vote, based on the estimate and concrete work of these years.
