Sémper contradicts Ayuso and clarifies the PP's position on voting by mail: "Our system is guaranteed"

The national spokesperson of the PP, Borja Sémper, established this Wednesday the official position of his party on voting by mail and contradicted Isabel Díaz Ayuso, who had questioned it. "Our system is guaranteed, we have tools and the ability to control that the system works," said Sémper in RNE, who has appealed for people to "go and vote by land, sea and air; also by mail."

The president of the Community of Madrid had asked "everyone not to even think about voting" by mail, and the president of Aragón, Jorge Azcón, has assured that his children live abroad, but they are going to return to Zaragoza to vote in situ. They thus clearly sowed doubts about the transparency of voting by mail.

Alberto Núñez Feijóo - who was, precisely, president of Correos from 2000 to 2003 - has not referred to this controversy in the last 48 hours, but his spokesperson has done so emphatically: "I trust the system." "Those who cannot vote" at the ballot box should vote by mail, he insisted.

"This is the position of my party" and what Ayuso or Azcón express are their "doubts" because Sánchez "is capable of many things," he conceded, in a message that clearly corrected the position of both barons.

It happens that the spokesperson for the PP in Congress, Ester Muñoz, also said yesterday that her party does trust the Post Office workers, but not in some of its managers, after Juanma Serrano, Pedro Sánchez's former chief of staff and a man very close to Leire Díez, became president of the company. "Therefore, the PP understands that there are millions of Spaniards who may have doubts about voting by mail," he stated.
