Tonight at Palacio's Government a crucial meeting is being held. President Ollanta Humala convened the caucus wins Peru to begin to define who will be the candidate of the ruling party for the Presidency of the Congress from July 27.
But earlier, at about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, it was circulated in Parliament a document signed by 22 lawmakers of the ruling base that support the postulation of the piuran representative Marisol Espinoza, who currently holds the vice-chairmanship of the Republic.
The trade knew that the promoter of this singular letter of support was the legislator Esther Saavedra, who spoke with the own Espinoza before three in the afternoon today to inform you of the support of this group of congressmen.
It would be the first time that the Government Caucus inside out a proposal to accede to the Presidency of the Congress. The last three times (Daniel Abugattás, Víctor island and Fredy Otárola) this nomination was directly proposed since Palacio's Government.
And the current President of the Parliament, Fredy Otárola, will continue in office?

But Espinoza won't be alone in this internal competition of the ruling. Arequipa colleague Ana María Solórzano, who chairs the Congressional Intelligence Committee, would have the backing of Palacio's Government.
