The elections began at 8 a.m. and will run until 6 p.m. Nearly 16,000 members are eligible to decide the successor to Víctor Godano.

This Sunday, November 30, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., elections are being held at Colón to choose the new president who will succeed Víctor Francisco Godano. With an atmosphere of anticipation and participation, the Sabalero members began arriving early at the Roque Otrino gymnasium, the epicenter of the elections.

In total, five lists are competing to lead Colón's future:

-Tradición Sabalera, headed by José Alonso.

-Sangre de Campeones, with Ricardo Luciani as candidate.

-Pasión Sabalera, led by Gustavo Abraham.

-Agrupación Dr. Ricardo Magdalena, which proposes Ricardo Magdalena for the presidency.

-Unidad Colonista, with Carlos Trod as candidate.

The elections will last for ten hours, closing at 6 p.m., and are proceeding normally under the protocols established by the Electoral Board. 22 tables have been set up to ensure a smooth process.

Members may enter only through the main gate located on Juan José Paso Avenue, while the exit is through Pietranera Street. Only those listed on the electoral roll and who meet the mandatory requirements may vote: presentation of a physical ID, membership card, and current dues. It is important to note that digital IDs from cell phones will not be accepted.

More than 16,000 eligible members

According to official data from the Electoral Board, 16,055 members are eligible to participate, including “A” and “B” Lifetime Members and Full Active Members, who have at least one year of membership as of the date of the call and have paid the October dues or the 2025 annual fee.

However, it was reported that 2,092 members are behind on one or two payments (September/October). Nevertheless, they will have the opportunity to catch up until the same Sunday, either by paying in person at the headquarters or through boleteríavip.

To find out if they are eligible to vote, members can consult the official electoral roll via the link provided by the institution.

With institutional renewal underway, Colón is experiencing a key day that will mark the beginning of a new era of leadership. The Sabalero members have the final say.
