These days the race for the presidency leaves several news at the end of the week, including the consolidation of the duo for the Historical Pact between Gustavo Petro and Francia Márquez as the vice-presidential formula with which they will seek to win the elections on May 29 in the first round.

While Federico Gutiérrez, who has 19% of the intention to vote according to the poll hired by major media, being second to Petro who holds 37%, confirmed his alliance with the U Party in support of his presidential campaign.

However, his formula for vice-presidency has not yet been known, although there is talk of the possibility that his right hand in the face of an eventual victory in the elections will be Dilian Francisca Toro, currently head of the Party of the U.

However, the National Registry clarified that it is 5 working days after the consultations, the maximum period for candidates to register their presidential aspiration along with who will be their vice-presidential formula, so the closing date will be next Monday, March 28.

Both Gustavo Petro and Federico Gutiérrez are the two most media contenders for the presidency, while the others remain somewhat more conservative in the face of screens and social networks, as is the case with Ingrid Betancourt and Rodolfo Hernández.

Sergio Fajardo, for his part, campaigns trying not to appear much in the media either in a controversial way.

Other politicians, in addition, are responsible for moving the scales against or in favor of some candidates, either with direct statements or through social networks, or at least that is what social media users comment who in recent hours have turned former president Álvaro Uribe Vélez into a trill about petrianism in recent hours. Cordoba.

With his own name, the Antioquian politician pointed to the petrianism of being campaigning through a teacher, supposedly, with the flags of the extinct M-19 guerrilla.

Several of the defenders of Gustavo Petro and Francia Márquez have responded to Uribe's statement with strong comments accusing him of putting the life of the professor he appointed at risk.

The comments in the publication of the leader of the Democratic Center revolve around the risk that appointing the professor poses to his life in areas where violence does not give up. In addition, users constantly cite the main direction of Twitter in Latin America calling for a sanction by the social network for Uribe.

Against this, Álvaro Uribe has not spoken, nor has there certainly been a sanction for the triune. However, there are many people who refuse to act by the former president on social networks.

Gustavo Petro has not spoken about the triune of Uribe either, so far it does not seem to generate major controversies between these two political opposites.
