In short statements to the media, he addressed the constitutional reform he initiated in 2020, the results of which, he said, were in the hands of President Nayib Bukele, and emphasized the importance of the population's voter turnout when observing that this was the case There was only a small influx of voters that day.
Ulloa emphasized the importance of the vote for the 20 Parlacen deputies as the government pays particular attention to regional integration, highlighting, among other things, the Trifinio plan that integrates border communities of El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala through support for agriculture, infrastructure and Environmental Protection.
While the elections were taking place, media reports indicated that people from other areas and members of the Nuevas Ideas party posed as heads of the Vote Receiving Board (JRV) at Albert Einstein University in Antiguo Cuscatlán.
The disagreement occurred in the early hours of this Sunday at Albert Einstein University, in the quiet municipality of Antiguo Cuscatlán, where Mayor Milagro Navas (Arena) and Housing Minister Michelle Sol are competing for the mayoralty of La Libertad Este.
The electoral law stipulates that the guards, owners and deputies of the JRVs “must be registered as such in the electoral roll of the respective municipality in which they carry out their duties, which they verify with their unique identification document,” according to the complainants.

Regarding these elections, Oscar Picardo, director of public opinion research at Francisco Gavidia University, estimated that “the elections appear to be largely a matter of process and no major changes are expected.”
