"No to the logic of patronage for the appointment of tellers"
shock and anger at what is going to make the Election Commission of the City Council of Barletta to the choice of the scrutineers for the elections to the regional council.
Instead of opting for a transparent draw, bad politics Barlettana means "control" and the tellers proceed to appoint the directors. It 'clear that this is a choice that stems from the logic of sharing and patronage pressures. Undoubtedly we will see the appointment of beautiful children, relatives, friends and voters of who has the power to choose the names of the tellers.
We dare not think what will become of the seats "Occupied" by ranks of tellers appointed by and report directly to those who chose them, maybe even friends of the candidate or candidates themselves. Instead of ensuring transparency, but to ensure peaceful voting process will be chaos and favoritism.
could have been done instead, as is happening in other municipalities to give priority to those who are regularly enrolled in the tellers, are in a state of economic hardship, students, unemployed and redundancy payments. In any case, the draw would guarantee transparency.
The figure of searching as a guarantor of all citizens, who must ensure the proper conduct of voting, is rather upset with these choices. The Watcher plays a very delicate and rather far from what you want to do with the current operation.
The Watcher has a different role from the representative list, which is just be present at polling stations to represent the parties and to supervise the voting process, but that is a representative of a party.
Paradoxically however, in so doing, one is made with all seats composed of representatives from the list, however, paid with public money.
We urge restoration is constitutional and democratic rules and not follow the logic of patronage took the right-wing government.
We appeal to the directors 'truly' democratic because they do not give up on this grim logic sorting and cronyism and instead work to make transparent the practice of advertising to draw citizenship the moment when this happens.
