Expats Opinion: Luis Abinader & Re-election

[NALs]

The dover of today's Listín Diario has the case of Luis Abinader and whether he will run for re-election.

What do expats think? He will run for re-election?

 

[aarhus]

But he’s not a US citizen

To be the President of the DR it is not necessary..............

More logical question would be will he win the re-election, he will run that's 100% guaranteed.

Not if the general public in the rest of the country feels the way they do here in Jarabacoa. They aren't happy with this government.

There are more voters in any 10 block area of the Capital than in the city of Jarabacoa.............

He's not well liked in the poor communities, by the unions nor is he gonna be supported by those who benefited from the old way of doing things and this includes members of his own party plus a lot of people like Abel Matinez. I don't think his relection will be as easy people think but I may have it wrong.

I would say you would be wrong, but I really cannot predict the future. I certainly hope you are wrong.

Mi amiga, who has both a law degree and teaching license, hates him. In her opinion, the best president in her lifetime was Balaguer. I don't know nearly enough about the finer points of D.R. politics to discuss it with her and so I just listen, although it can be like listening to a Ricky Ricardo tirade.

understand that. Lots of people in the capital have no or limited water.

On DR social media I see Leonel mentioned more and more.
