In addition, Julián Núñez will be Secretary of Tourism; Carmen Gloria Rodríguez, Secretary of Environment and Training; Cristopher Notario, Secretary of Sports; Amparo Suarez, Secretary of Equality; and Cristo Daniel González, Secretary of Youth.
In her acceptance speech after the announcement of the results, Kalinda Pérez expressed her desire to regain the trust of the citizens of Tías in the PSOE. "We are going to write a new chapter in the socialist history of the municipality, so full of political successes, citizen advancement, and concern for the people. And we are going to manage this Corporation again, united and strengthened, with criteria of solidarity and social justice, equality, and attention to the disadvantaged," said the now local secretary of Tías.
In addition, she pledged to "focus her efforts" on "evicting the forces of the right wing from the municipal government."
