The regional directorate of Citizens in Murcia informed the Councilor of Lorca Antonio Meca last Friday, March 22, that he would not be the candidate of his party to the municipal elections, the one elected for that position was D. Francisco Morales.
The explanation that was given to Mecca was "neither give the physical or political profile of the game."
This decision has been taken back to the will of the members of Lorca: more than 50% reported to the national and regional leadership their support for Antonio Meca, for his career as a councilman and candidate for the upcoming elections.
This situation has caused that so far more than 30 members of Citizens in Lorca have requested the withdrawal in the game.
"The decision that I am not a candidate has been taken by the PP and may also have decided who will be the new candidate" says Antonio Meca, who is based on the PP Lorca want to ensure the support of Citizens to renew their Government municipal.
"The PP Lorca is aware of the need to have the votes of Citizens as of May, and it is clear that they need to ensure the support of my party."
Mecca reiterates "my commitment to transparency and fight against corruption in defense of Lorca, over personal and partisan interests of any kind, as has been my slogan so far: without fear and without rest."
