CYPRadar 🇨🇾📰 Democratic Rally Gears Up for 2028 Presidential Race with Two Leading Contenders
The Democratic Rally (DISY) party is preparing for the 2028 presidential elections with a clear decision to field its own candidate, as reiterated by party president Annita Demetriou. Currently, Demetriou and Averof Neofytou emerge as the frontrunners for the party's nomination, with Giorgos Pamboridis also mentioned as a potential contender. Internal polls suggest a close race, further complicated by the presence of President Nikos Christodoulides, who, while not seeking DISY's nomination, maintains a significant support base within the party ranks.
Recent strategic moves — including Demetriou's statements supporting government efforts and Neofytou's launch of a WhatsApp channel — hint at behind-the-scenes efforts to sway internal voters ahead of a crucial party vote planned for autumn. This vote will, for the first time under new party rules, allow the approximately 50,000 party members to select DISY's presidential candidate. Party officials emphasize the importance of unity following an expected challenging nomination battle, with a focus on presenting a strong, independent platform for the upcoming elections.
