Ivelisse Prats de Pérez, a former Minister of Education and now director of the education section of the PRD, said that the statement made by Cardinal López Rodríguez against a program carried out by Monsignor Núñez Collado was but a “fight between priests… and we should not get involved.”
She said that the Consejo Nacional de Empresa Privada is also represented on the council of the Iniciativas Democraticas. She then added, “I see no reason how releasing information on the results can get out of hand, because that is the role of the JCE, which is comprised of upright citizens that have been working until now with good results, winning the trust of the politicians and the faith of the nation.”
