Josephine Quintero and Jose RamonReporter and correspondentNewspaper La JornadaThursday July 5, 2012, p. 40Soriana cards gave the PRI voters in municipalities of Mexico in exchange for their votes without funds reported yesterday. Only a few had balances of $ 100 (€ 6). Electronic purses empty, coupled with the closure of shops Zaragoza and El Salado in the chain of supermarkets, generated the anger of the people who decided to talk about how they made the purchase of votes.
There were different ways. Star student of the College of Bachelors 1, talked to the state government invited young people to a meeting with Enrique Peña Nieto, the stadium Neza. "He Peña, gave the talk and then we got the cards. We clarified that would be activated in July, after the election, if the PRI won. "
Another way was through the PRI representatives in the colonies. In the group Pantitlán and Tepozanes "cards offered 500 thousand pesos (€ 31) but only if we gave the voter." They said "it is not going to stay, but handed over after the first of July."
On the day of the election, said Edwin, "with a picture of the ballot that will teach them, marked that voted for the PRI, you got the card."
The same situation told housewives, unemployed workers and professionals who sold their vote to the PRI card in exchange for Soriana. Now they say duped by leaders of the PRI, who offered up to 2 thousand dollars (€ 124) when in fact, in most cases, purses not have balance.
The average number of cards received (two, three, or four per family) depended on the number of votes. Respondents agreed that voted for Enrique Peña Nieto, but justified, "was by necessity, not conviction."Laura, unemployed accountant, graduated from the National Polytechnic Institute, said: "Indeed, I was on the cards and vote for the PRI just went today to check four-turns out not to have balance.
"Plastics Foil 2000 1064 0762 9041, 2000 1003 4104 4034 2000 1004 0762 9025 and have a thousand dollars each, but they are at zero. I went back and complained, but was told that is above question, they can not do anything. "
Sandra is a neighbor to the neighborhood of La Perla in Nezahualcoyotl, lives within walking distance of the Red Cross delegation and Sunday voted for the PRI. "They told me I first had to confirm my vote and when voting at that time to receive my cards that activate". Met and defrayed. He was given the cards 2000 1004 0762 9330 2000 1004 6762 1348, but have no balance.
Yesterday, before the suspension of activities determined to implement the authorities of the Iztapalapa delegation to the store Soriana El Salado, the State of Mexico who attempted to redeem your card for food discovered that he had no funds. They wondered if it had been canceled, if it were not activated or were victims of deception.
Upon closing the store, the Iztapalapa reported that after the 16 hours resulted in the suspension of operations of the store located in Ignacio Zaragoza road in the colony Beehive "for lack of safety measures," among which is the program civil protection.
