In a… “prince” for strong solvers the issue of the person to be proposed by the government for the high state office is evolving. The Prime Minister has heard suggestions for various persons, from various places, and not only politicians, but he has reportedly not shared his thoughts with anyone, which he will communicate after mid-January. The big bet is the proposed, not only to ensure the maximum possible consensus – which he in an interview has stated is sought – but also not to divide the N.D. Parliamentary Group and give “air to the sails” of the government. The number of people who think it is perhaps a one-way street is increasing, the choice of the person being from the centre-left area. This reasoning is based on simple arithmetic. The mathematical equation. Let’s see the equation. In order to elect the candidate or candidate President of the Republic, the first vote in the House should receive 200 votes. If this is not achieved, five days after a second vote, where 200 positive votes are still required. If this number does not come together this time too, the constitutional legislator, in order to dissociate the presidential election from early elections, has foreseen the holding of three more votes. The third needs 180 votes, the fourth 151 votes and the fifth vote require a relative majority of the Members present, that is to say less than 151 positive votes. Since the ND Parliamentary Group has 156 Members, it can itself elect President of the Republic. However, such a development would be negative for the image of the government and the Prime Minister himself. “One-way” a centre-right nomination? In this light, then, there are many who believe that a party nomination does not seem to have much chance… PASOK has made it clear that it will not support a person from the ruling party, while even if they give a positive vote to independent MPs coming from Spartans or members of Victory, numbers… do not come out. “One-way”. Some say, to be chosen person from the centre left “to be voted for at least by Harilau Trikoupis”. In this case, the arithmetic act (156 from the N.D. + 31 from PASOK) gives 187 positive votes. This means that the election of President of the Republic is more likely to resemble the third vote, in which the bar is at 180 votes. In addition, a choice of face from the centre left area, is estimated in Maximus and Piraeus that it would mark that the Prime Minister remains the sovereign in the centre area. Venizelos and Stournaras up at the discussion table Who this person might be remains a political quiz… Evangelos Venizelos and Giannis Stournaras are reported to be high in the Prime Minister’s notebook and are lastly constantly discussed in the “blue springs”. Quotations have also been made for Loukas Papademos, Lina Mendoni, Maria Efthymiou and for Anna Diamantopoulou and Maria Damanakis. Is the nomination possible, Sakellaropoulou? Strongly remains at the table and the name of today’s President of the Republic. Mitsotakis is reportedly considering the renewal of Katerina Sakellaropoulou’s term. Although some “blue” MPs say they are opposed – taking into account mainly the annoyance in the right audience of her presence at the party after the passage of the law on same-sex couples – in Piraeus there is the certainty that, if proposed, the entire Parliamentary Group will be drafted by the Prime Minister’s decision. In addition to the “blue” camp they estimate that the parties of the centre left who supported her to be elected in 2020 by 266 votes will have difficulty explaining why they will now change their stance. Could it be Mrs. Sakellaropoulou who can be elected again with such a broad majority? That’s a difficult question to answer right now… Of course, the “sword and melon” are held by the Prime Minister. If he chooses a person who will also be supported by SYRIZA, i.e. with an additional 26 votes, then “white smoke” can also come out of the first vote in Parliament. Kumoundurus has made it clear, however, that she will submit her own proposal immediately. By 13 March the inauguration of the new or new President of the Republic According to the Constitution (Article 32), the election of the President of the Republic by the Parliament is by roll-call vote and a special session, convened by the Speaker of the House at least one month before the end of the term of office of the President of the Republic (expires 13 March). In other words, the first vote should take place by 13 February at the latest as defined in the Rules of Procedure of the House.
