Madrid (EFE).- The Secretary of State for Communication, Francesc Vallès, and the Undersecretary of the Interior, Isabel Goicoechea, have guaranteed this Saturday that the entire device is ready for the general elections to take place “with total normality” and have praised the electoral system, “robust, secure and well designed”.
At a press conference at the National Data Dissemination Center, at the IFEMA fairgrounds on the eve of some atypical summer elections, they had words of gratitude for Correos, “which has carried out a great job of public responsibility in view of the high number of votes” cast by this means.
Asked about the possibility of incidents in the constitution of the tables or throughout the day, which is expected to be hot, Vallès has emphasized that the device is prepared so that “everything works correctly as always” and has highlighted all the resources activated by the different administrations.
Both the Government delegations and the sub-delegations, he added, are at the “total disposal of the City Councils to provide the resources that are necessary for the day to flow as normally as possible”.
After reviewing the main data of these elections, in which almost 37.5 million citizens will be able to vote in the 22,562 polling stations, they have shown their gratitude to the more than 180,000 citizens summoned as presidents or board members and to the 362,000 called as substitutes.
And they have also thanked the work that will be carried out by all the participants in the conference, from the party controllers to the more than 90,000 members of the State security forces and bodies that will make up the security device.
“Everything is ready for the elections to take place as normal,” Goicoechea insisted.
