This was confirmed by the president of CSE, Judge Brenda Rocha, in statements to the Nicaraguan television.

Rocha stressed that free and sovereign elections belong to all the people of Nicaragua.

“All the actions on the calendar from the beginning of May to date were carried out in coordination with the political parties and alliances, as established by law,” she stressed.
