• 19J The City Council of Salobreña defends that the registration of Macarena Olona in the house of a Granadan leader of Vox is legal

The 'Andaluces Levantaos' coalition has formally registered this Wednesday the appeal it announced against the candidacy of the Vox deputy Macarena Olona for the province of Granada for the regional elections

on June 19

, of course "breach of the neighborhood requirement" in Andalusia and "fictitious registration" in the Granada town of

Salobreña

.

This has been indicated by 'Andaluces Levantaos' in a statement in which said resource is framed "under the provisions of article 24.2 of

Law 1/1986 of January 2, Electoral Law of Andalusia

", and "having observed irregularities" in the aforementioned candidacy of Vox, which this coalition requests with its complaint that "it be annulled for non-compliance with the requirement of neighborhood in this autonomous community and for fictitious registration".

The candidate of 'Andaluces Levantaos' to the Board,

Modesto González

, has explained before the doors of the Electoral Board of Granada, where the appeal has been filed, the bases of the document that the legal team of the formation has prepared, and has indicated that "in the complaint it is clear" that the also Vox candidate for the presidency of the Board, Macarena Olona, ​​"has never been a resident of Andalusia, a mandatory issue to attend the elections, as indicated by Law 1/91986, of January 2, 1986 that regulates the electoral processes of Andalusia".

The resource promoted by 'Andaluces Levantaos' maintains that registration in the electoral census is "a necessary procedure but not therefore sufficient", so that "the fact of being registered makes us presume, initially, that we are dealing with a resident of the municipality in question, but what is essential is not the fulfillment of the formality, but the material reality that one is in the habitual residence of that person".

"Registering in the census, but not actually being a neighbor, would lead us to a fiction and a fraud of law," Modesto González commented on this.

During the appeal that was made known this Wednesday, article 15 of the Law of Bases of Local Regime is also alluded to, where it is determined, according to what has been abundant from 'Andaluces Levantaos', that "whoever lives in several municipalities must register only in the one who lives for the longest time per year".

'Andaluces Levantaos' also refers in its letter to other resolutions and public technical instructions that "reinforce this sole idea that the census registration, in order to be normative, must be carried out in the habitual residence of the person in question."

At the same time, from this Andalusian coalition they consider that "it is clearly accredited that, when there are indications that cast doubt on any of the data declared by the citizen, the necessary procedural acts will have to be ordered to verify the veracity of the data" .

For all these reasons, "and in light of what has recently been made public by practically all of the media, Mrs. Olona would have fulfilled the formal requirement of requesting registration in the census of Salobreña (Granada) by not fulfilling the material requirement of habitually living in said municipality".

As they point out from 'Andaluces Levantaos', "this information is not provided by just anyone, but rather by the person who had given him half of his home - the upper part of a house, as he himself has assured -, former president in the province of the political party to which Mrs. Olona belongs --

Manuel Martín

--, stating that she would be lying if she said that Mrs. Olona regularly visits the house".

Modesto González has reported that the complaint filed attaches a list of press clippings where the public statements that have been made in this regard are reflected.

"According to the owner of the property, Mrs. Olona does not use the house as usual, so the registration does not respond to reality and would be done in fraud of law," says the candidate of 'Andaluces Levantaos'.

The complaint also invites the Electoral Board, "in the event that it requires any clarification, to request an urgent report from the

Salobreña City Council

."

"I am registered in Granada, and?"

Olona has referred this Wednesday to the controversy.

The Vox deputy has responded with sarcasm to her criticism of her registration in Granada to be able to attend the elections on June 19;

despite the fact that the Minister of the Presidency,

Félix Bolaños

, has insisted that her candidacy "breaks the law."

Olona herself addressed the controversy in the plenary session of Congress during the government control session, where she focused a question on Bolaños on the upcoming Andalusian elections and blamed the "fear" of the PSOE that they would try to "silence" her during the campaign vetoing her in electoral debates and also criticizing her registration.

"I am registered in Granada, and?", she said between laughs, maintaining that her action has been "absolutely legal" and the controversy "border on the absurd".

"The controversy would have been to present the candidacy after the

deadline

", she has continued ironically in reference to Podemos in this case, which did not arrive in time to join the left-wing coalition 'For Andalusia'.

Olona sees Bolaños himself behind this controversy, whom he has branded as a "parsley" minister for being present "in all the sauces" and "in all the fiascoes."

And if he accuses her of cheating the law, he has encouraged her to take it to court.

In any case, he has warned that Vox's strength is not in her as a candidate, but in her project for Spain and has joked about the possibility of continuing the rest of the legislature in Congress as a 'shadow' of Bolaños.

"Every Wednesday until the end of the legislature, dedicate all my attention to it, imagine it," she has summoned.

"False prophets"

Bolaños, for his part, has despised this "action."

"Let's go from theater to reality", he has asked, calling Olona a "parachutist" candidate and insisting that "he breaks the law" and also "brags about it".

"She stands in a land where she has never lived and probably never will," he has rejected him.

At this point, he has compared some of the measures adopted by the Government in recent years with those that, in his opinion, an Executive "of the right and the extreme right" would adopt, giving examples of the Minimum Vital Income, pensions, aid to carriers or the price of electricity.

And it has ended with a quote from the Bible: "By their works you will know them, beware of false prophets who come in sheep's clothing but inside they are ravenous wolves."
