Murcia, Apr 14 (EFE).- The former president of the Community with the PP and founder of Somos Región, Alberto Garre, has been signed by Vox to form part of the electoral list of this party for the Regional Assembly, as confirmed by the political to Onda Regional.
Garre, who began his political career in Torre Pacheco, had abandoned active politics in 2019 after the discreet results achieved by his political project Somos Región in the last regional elections.
In 2014, after Ramón Luis Valcárcel resigned from the presidency of the Community to join the European Parliament, the Regional Board of Directors of the Popular Party chose Garre as Valcárcel’s successor, but after the regional elections of May 2015 he was relieved in the presidency by Pedro Antonio Sánchez, who had formed part of his government as Minister of Education.
In March 2017, Garre resigned from PP and then created the Murcia Region Civic Platform and in April 2018 founded Somos Región.
His signing for VOX has not yet been officially confirmed by this political formation.
