Following an extraordinary meeting held at the Santo Domingo city hall, Partido Revolucionario Dominicano mayors agreed to not accept funding for their municipalities from Senator Amable Aristy Castro, who is holding the post of secretary-general of the Dominican Municipal League, with the support of the PLD-government. Spokesman of the group, Johnny Ventura, who is the mayor of Santo Domingo, said the mayors want to receive their moneys directly from the National Treasury, bypassing the PRSC-appointed secretary general of the Dominican Municipal League. A series of irregularities on behalf of the PRSC and the PRD, and the support of the government and PLD to the PRSC, resulted in the election of two secretary generals of the municipal league that is in charge of funding the municipal governments.
