First: I didn't knew that my post about the LGBT parade would get so much attention or would be discussed. Unfortunately the conservative and religious wing of the government wants to make Christianophobia a crime. :blink:
On a more serious note:
The deputies already approved some points of political reform:
Campaign financing: Allows companies to finance parties and provides that individuals can donate to parties and candidates.
End of re-election: Finished for president, governors and mayors. The measure does not meet the mayors elected in 2012 and governors elected last year.
Time of mandates: They spend 4 to 5 years on the Executive and the Legislature. From 2020 to mayors and councilors, and 2022 for the remaining positions.
Performance clause: The parties must elect at least one deputy or senator to have access to the party fund and to free time radio and TV.
Reduction of Age: The minimum age to apply for deputy falls from 21 to 18. For governor, 30 to 29; and senator, from 35 to 29.
Date of possession: The president takes office January 5; governors, 4th.
