Obviously, at Mr. Dendia’s side will be the regional governor of Central Macedonia, Apostolos Tzitzikostas, who, as we said, took on a very active role this time in view of the European elections… So a premiere for the electoral regional governor of the ND, Nikos Dendias, in his pre-election duties in Central Macedonia.
-Pre-election fever and at PASOK – Movement for Change in Thessaloniki. At the meeting of the prefectural council of the party, the events for the next period were planned and the proposals of the 1st Prefectural Committee of Thessaloniki, the local members of the Central Committee and the heads of the local party organizations were submitted. Tomorrow the electoral campaign committee meets in Evosmos and the information says that there will be a barrage of party events and excursions in various areas of Thessaloniki, especially in the urban complex, until Maundy Thursday in order to enter the final stretch towards the elections after Easter. The party officials in Thessaloniki are very satisfied with the presence of the president, Nikos Androulakis, in the city last week, but also from the program for the last month of the elections, which foresees frequent visits of the president to our region. Although this has not yet been officially established.
-THE George Arvanitidis, one of the strong names of PASOK in 2nd Thessaloniki, for years its deputy and former mayor, is now on the side of Andreas Loverdos and in fact in a key position in the “Democrates” party. He assumed director of the party, with increased responsibilities and role, which caused an impression, despite the fact that Mr. Arvanitidis had recently distanced himself from PASOK – Movement for Change and its leadership. A year ago to be exact. In the national elections of May 2023, Mr. Arvanitidis lost his first place in the Second Thessaloniki. Although he collected almost the same crosses as in the parliamentary elections of 2019, when he was elected the party’s first deputy, he fell to fifth place and in June 2023, in the repeat elections, his name was now placed at the bottom of the list. The days of PASOK – Movement of Change for Mr. Arvanitidis were over and his new political home is in the “Democrates” of Andreas Loverdos, with whom he maintains a close friendship.
-Election event tonight and for the MeΓΑ25 – Subversive Ecological Left in Thessaloniki. At the Thessaloniki town hall at 7:00 p.m., the presentation of the party’s MEP candidates from Thessaloniki will take place, while the Thessaloniki electoral committee will be formed, which will run the pre-election campaign at the local level. In fact, the committee undertakes to coordinate organizationally, politically and communicatively the pre-election campaign of the ballot in Thessaloniki.
