Eva Prados Rodríguez, the Citizen Victory Movement (MVC by its initials in Spanish) candidate for the San Juan District 3 seat in the island House of Representatives, conceded victory Monday to the New Progressive Party (NPP) incumbent, José “Cheito” Hernández Concepción.


“Just as in 2020, we won in the regular polling places on the day of the elections, but we didn’t win on election day,” Prado said in a written statement. “The results of the vote by mail, with its irregularities and lack of transparency and credibility, gave the advantage again to the NPP candidate.”


Prado had led by a thin margin of 82 votes in the days following Election Day, before mail-in votes had been tallied.


The attorney thanked those who supported her second run for the House seat.


“The communities of District 3 should know that they will always have an ally in their struggle for a better quality of life,” she said.
