The Superior Electoral Court (TSE) annulled the meeting of the PRSC member board that took place on 9 June 2017 called by the party president, Federico Antún. During that meeting the board approved that an assembly of delegates meet to choose the authorities of the PRSC. During the assembly that subsequently would take place on 17 September 2017, Federico Antún was re-elected president and Ramón Rogelio Genao was elected secretary general. The TSE ruled that the necessary quorum for that meeting, of half of the 60 delegates of the PRSC board plus one, was not met. The TSE says that Antún could only validate 28 eligible members.
A separate faction of the PRSC held a simultaneous assembly on the same 17 September, when José Hazim was voted president, Joaquin Ricardo, secretary general and Victor (Ito) Bisonó, acting president. The motion to annul the Antún presidency was submitted by José Hazim, Victor Bisonó, among others.
