Nano: Here’s how we will get every vote

The platform: dialogue with everyone, including those who abstain Yesterday’s KPD meeting: Socialists approve the report for the congress and the platform for the elections The platform as a whole has been designed with this aim. Through it, we seek to engage in dialogue with the entire electorate that might potentially abstain, because we have identified not only what that segment of the electorate wants as an emergency solution, but also the instruments and programs that ensure solutions to the problems of normalizing community life in the countryside or in the city, in terms of basic living conditions, employment, infrastructure that guarantees a normal water supply, the normal movement of citizens in terms of roads, a normal electricity supply, and other services.
