'' If Piedone is running, I will definitely support him. He's a man who is well organized, able to mobilize people and he is very good and he is doing a very good job at the town hall. (...) He has experience, that's what I see, he has a very good team at the town hall. He moves well, " Senator Ilie Nastase said.
Another PC member who has announced support for the district 4 mayor is the deputy mayor of the Conservative Party, who is supported by several branches in Transylvania. Serban Radulescu is calling for a congress to replace Daniel Constantin with Cristian Popescu Piedone.
"We need changes at party level and they cannot be done without a Congress in which to establish our allies and identity. So far, the current leadership has done nothing, we have just been towed by one party or the other. It is clear that the one who demonstrated he is a force, a strong leader, and credible, who won all the elections in April, is Cristian Popescu Piedone.
A Congress is inevitable and I see Piedone as the man who can lead the party and revitalize it. The local elections are pending. The party seems disoriented and a change must come as soon as possible. By March we should hold the Congress, PC Vice-president Serban Radulescu says.
Conservative Party member abroad are on the same page.
"PC Diaspora organizations are supporting the candidacy of Mr. Cristian Popescu Piedone for president of the party and want to organize a Congress in the shortest time," PC Diaspora leader, Abraham Gal says.
