Miguel Ángel Jazmín took a step that shakes the politics of Samaná: he was sworn in to the People’s Force alongside Leonel Fernández, in an event that brought together leaders, former authorities, and community figures from the province. Miguel Ángel Jazmín, known as “Muñeco”, was one of the most prominent names of the PLD in that demarcation.

The oath of Miguel Ángel Jazmín marks a significant move due to his electoral trajectory. He was a deputy in two consecutive periods and also aspired to the Senate for Samaná, which allowed him to build a political network with presence in several municipalities. His arrival at the People’s Force strengthens the territorial growth strategy of the organization led by Leonel Fernández.
Samaná as a key plaza for the opposition
The presence of former PLD leaders, ex-senators, and representatives of transportation and business shows that the activity had more than a symbolic value. In Samaná, where political competition is often defined by local structures and personal leaderships, this type of adherence can quickly move internal balances.
Leonel Fernández bets on strengthening his provincial structure
In his political message, Miguel Ángel Jazmín remembered works executed during the governments of Leonel Fernández in Samaná, such as roads, sports facilities, and housing projects. He also insisted that the former president has the experience to manage crisis moments and retake growth, a narrative that the People’s Force has maintained in its public acts.

During the event, Miguel Ángel Jazmín stated that the country needs a change of course and asserted that Leonel Fernández will return to power. In a political and direct speech, he assured that the population demands experience, stability, and works, arguments he used to justify his decision to leave the PLD.
“It’s sure, sure, the next president of the Dominican Republic”, he said to sympathizers and leaders present.

Additionally, Miguel Ángel Jazmín joined ex-leaders, councilors, ex-municipal candidates, and base cadres from different points of the province. Between them, figures linked to youth, local government, transportation, and productive sectors, a mix that expands the capacity for organization of the People’s Force in the northeast zone.
