"Historic" is an ambiguous term in these elections. The usual political party won almost everything, so everything will stay the same, nothing historic about this. Jesús Manuel wasn't a strong candidate and that it's why he came in third, but in the rest of the island his party triumphed. With a stronger candidate for governor literally this elections would have been the same as the previous ones. The nexts elections will literally be almost the same. Nothing as changed.
I understand, but I do think the PIP winning entire municipios is historic and hopeful. And I will always choose to be hopeful. As Alfredo said the night of the elections, he's never seen a green and blue map, hence 'historic.' Also, there were two additional ballots introduced this year and that is, objectively, new. That is a change.
@ Yes, I think it's just milestone, and an expected one. The formula was that Lugaro's past voters would vote for him, and that is what happened. Nothing really changed to call it historic.
@@eduardocarlos149 if various never-before-seen factors take place then that makes it memorable and worthy of studying later on as part of our history. It is the first time various candidates from PIP won, it is also the first time in 70+ years that the PPD was not in the top two for governor. Whether you want to attribute it to a weak candidate or not it is a fact that it is the first time in our entire history that it has happened, making it historic. This would be true even if next election PPD would go back to being in the top 2 for Governor. This is also true for when Lugaro ran for Governor the first time. It was an unprecedented event that as an effect has led to the current state. Whether it will have an outcome leading to a change or not in the future is yet to be seen but it would be foolish not to understand the historic impact it has in one way or another.
@@TheArtKingdomYT What "various candidates" of the PIP are you talking about apart from María del Lourdes and Denis Márquez (that have been elected in past elections)? Adriana? Because with the votes that are still needed to be counted she might not win, sadly. What is it there to study? Dalmau got Lúgaros votes, which was literally discussed months ago. Lúgaro indeed made history by being the first independent candidate to obtain a third place. This is Juan Dalmau's third election, he just got more votes. On the other hand Puerto Rico lost, Mariana Nogales, Rafael Bernabe, Ana Irma and Betito. What makes historic that Jesús got a third place? meanwhile his party have the most amount of mayors. Let's stop romanticising that we "made history" by loosing. For me, everything was expected.
