Santiago Matías sets electoral trend with 3.6% preference
The Dominican political landscape has recorded a figure that has captured the attention of various sectors. Santiago Matías, a renowned communicator and businessman, has reached 3.6% of voting intention in a recent public opinion poll, despite not currently having an official party structure registered with the Central Electoral Board.
This result is especially notable because the political project he leads, called “Dominicanos Primero,” is still in the phase of collecting signatures and completing the necessary procedures to obtain its legal recognition as a political party.
Overview of presidential preferences
The survey presents a scenario where traditional parties maintain the lead, although with a significant portion of the population still without a clear definition. The results of the measurement are distributed as follows:
- Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM): 17.4%
- People’s Force (FP): 14.2%
- Dominican Liberation Party (PLD): 9.5%
- Other political options: 7.8%
- Santiago Matías (Dominicans First): 3.6%
A determining factor in these results is the high level of uncertainty among the citizens consulted. According to the data collected, 47.5% of respondents stated they did not know who they would vote for or preferred not to provide an answer given the proposed scenario.
The figure obtained by Matías is significant, as he manages to position himself on the electoral board without having previously competed under a recognized organization, which reflects the impact of his proposal on the citizenry.
The path of “Dominicans First”
Santiago Matías has positioned “Dominicanos Primero” as an alternative proposal to the traditional parties. To achieve its goal of participating in the electoral race, the movement has intensified its work sessions in various provinces of the country, seeking to complete the legal and technical requirements demanded by electoral law to become a formal political force.
Monitoring this project will continue to be a point of interest in national political analysis, as the validation processes for its organization proceed before the corresponding bodies.
