The consolidation of the lists took place at the last minute, when the deadline for submitting the lists for the upcoming elections would be tomorrow at midnight. The reason for the delay in the union, though the two lists ran together in the first 2019 elections and in a broader union in the second round in September of that year, probably stems from the disputed relationship between the two, according to sources in both parties.
