Osmond Martinez is Confident in Delivering Toledo East

Having covered as much ground as is necessary to secure his votes, Doctor Martinez is confident that he can deliver the constituency for the ruling party.  According to the former C.E.O. turned politician, the results of the recent P.U.P. convention that saw him emerge victorious as standard bearer is an indication of his popularity in Toledo East.

“How confident are you given the work that you’ve done, in terms of canvassing the constituency, going into tomorrow’s by-elections?”

 

On the Phone: Osmond Martinez, P.U.P. Standard Bearer, Toledo East

“I am very confident and I will give you the historical data so that it can help you to understand why I am confident and this is empirical data.  So, for example, in 2020, the U.D.P. candidate received about one thousand, seven hundred and twenty-one votes.  During the convention, you know, which was more an internal party convention, it was an internal party convention, I received one thousand, seven hundred and sixty-two votes which means that during the convention I received more votes than what the U.D.P. candidate received in the 2020 general elections.  So that on its own speaks for itself, you know, and the confidence and the timing is very important.  Since the P.U.P. is the central government, it’s the government right now, the administration that is running the government, it makes it a little bit more viable for me, or much more viable because the people are asking the questions that the citizens are asking, or the residents of Toledo East are asking the opponents, you know, the other candidates.  What will you do for us?  And so, timing is important.”
