Fico Gutierrez: The risk of him being "Uribe's presidential candidate."
Since the night of Sunday, Federico Fico Gutierrez, the Colombian presidential candidate, has been the strongest. While it's not the first time that his name appears on an electoral card - he has been mayor and councilor in Medellin the city he was elected to represent - but his first time in a presidential election which he won more than 2 million votes in the Team for Colombia coalition, they have him listed as an ideal candidate for conservative groups or those who are frightened when they think of an open-minded presidency. Fico (47-year-old Fico), who is his name, is the main opposition of Gustavo Petro. https://www.highlandcountychamber.com/fico-gutierrez-ran-the-medellin-half-marathon-what-did-he-think-of-it/ was, with the Historic Pact, one of three candidates in the race which determined who would be the three major political forces.

The presidential election has only started. If Medellin's former city mayor will be able to become the ultimate opposition to petrismo is contingent on the alliances create and the discussions that he conducts. He must not only unify the entire right, but also win over just a tiny fraction of the center electorate which was disintegrated on Sunday. He will need to keep his distance from former President Alvaro Urbine, something is not something he's done in the past. For the first time in the past 20 years, there is an open support for uribism, instead of adding, can reduce. "Federico Gutierrez faces a dilemma. He is required to create an alliance with Uribe's Democratic Center (CD), but he will also have to convince Uribe's center.

Fico achieved its first conquest this week on its path to a pledge of allegiance to the CD. Oscar Ivan Zuluaga was the candidate for that party's presidential candidacy. We'll check to see if the Uribismo group that was without a spokesperson until Monday, is willing to offer its support. Uribe is likely to openly support his candidate and persuade his voters by presenting the classic issues that make up the Colombian left. This shouldn't be a problem for Uribe. The speech he delivered of "security", "order", "opportunities" and "love of the country" already demonstrated that he is able to add votes. This was confirmed on Sunday during the consultation on elections similar to what he did when he worked in the mayor's office of the capital city of Antioquia and was known as the sheriff of Medellin. In a recent trip to Arauca (an area which has been particularly impacted by violence) Fico said "The bandits are in prison or in the grave." Fico is aware of the Colombian right's choices, but that will not suffice for Fico.

"We aren't in the year the year 2018, when the fear of left had worked, but this time the electorate is not influenced by fear," Basset points out. The analyst claims that Fico may not receive Uribe’s approval due to the fact that Alvaro Uribe has been stripped of his absolute leadership role since 2002 when he was elected president. Although this does not mean that the votes of Uribismo regardless of whether they are below the table, are not indispensable to Gutierrez, as happened this Sunday, or in his first attempt to get into the city's mayor's office in Medellin in the past, when Uribe did not hesitate to support him over the candidate from his party. Uribism was also a key factor in this victory (winning within the coalition). https://www.dtomarmaris.org/auto-draft-118/ warns "Now his capacity as a negotiator in winning the coalition] will be assessed: to convince right, and not spend the entire time on this alliance." On this relationship between the former president and Fico, the expert Andres Mejia Vergnaud explains "the biggest problem for Federico Gutierrez is that he is seeking the votes of Uribismo but not the photo with Uribe as it doesn't suit him to be his candidate".

Gustavo Petro is left-leaning, while Gustavo Petro is right-leaning. However, https://www.anochords.org/federico-gutierrez-receives-a-standing-applause-at-medellins-restaurant-2/ - if he can reach a compromise - will convince Gustavo Petro to support him. Rodolfo Hernandez is still running despite having run independently. Gutierrez should include in his list the former mayor Bucaramanga who is a billionaire builder who managed to do well in the polls due to his speech against corruption in a humorous voice.

Gutierrez has a lot to discuss before even considering names for his presidential plan however, what he has is the backing of other candidates competing for the top spot in the Team for Colombia coalition. It's not too much. Two mayors from the past, Enrique Penalosa in Bogota and Alex Char in Barranquilla, are in his presence; David Barguil is the leader of the Conservative party. Aydee Lizarazo is a Christian party woman who casts her vote according to the instructions of her church's lectern.

https://www.trackometrix.com/the-ovation-to-federico-gutierrez-in-a-restaurant-in-medellin-3/ has been strengthened by receiving the biggest support from right-wing groups with more than two million votes. Furthermore https://www.asian-tapas.com/auto-draft-147/ has shown sympathy towards the Conservative Party. They also have a strong voteof just over one million votes, for the legislative. Oscar Ivan Zuluaga supported Fico and didn't take for too long after the elections on Sunday to accept his defeat in front of a possible clash with the votes of the right. But this also provides Fico an extra push within the conservative wing, while keeping him further from the middle. Alvaro Uribe (ex-President) summoned his party to a gathering on Monday, to see if Fico is willing to risk his chance of being a center-right candidate as a result of being publicly blessed by Uribe.
