🗳️ Real Madrid hit back at Enrique Riquelme over census claims | OneFootball

The Real Madrid Electoral Board has issued an official statement firmly responding to the recent remarks made by presidential candidate Enrique Riquelme.

The candidate had publicly alleged supposed inequality in access to the electoral roll, while also raising doubts about the security of mail-in voting.

In response, the electoral body has categorically denied that the electoral roll has been provided to any candidacy.

As explained in the statement, the current procedure stipulates that it is the candidates themselves who must submit their campaign material to the club, and the club is responsible for sending it to members in order to guarantee equality.

Maximum transparency

Likewise, the Board has expressed deep concern over the suspicions raised about the custody of the votes.

To ensure maximum transparency in the election, it has been confirmed that any candidacies requesting it may appoint scrutineers to continuously monitor access to the storage room, an area that is also covered by security video surveillance.

Finally, Real Madrid maintains that it is strictly complying with the established regulations and demands institutional respect for the process.

The club concludes that any information received by members has been handled in accordance with the official deadlines and regulations, guaranteeing the complete integrity of the elections on June 7.
