Ticket sharing was even mentioned in the newspapers, with a PTr accepting 32 of the 60 tickets, and the MMM and PMSD sharing 28 tickets.<\/p>\n<p>Navin Ramgoolam reacted in the same afternoon by saying that such an agreement had not been discussed, and that it was undoubtedly a leak whose objective was to scramble the negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>This hypothesis seemed in any case very implausible since it in no way reflected the locomotive status that Navin Ramgoolam confers on the PTr in this alliance.<\/p>\n<p>From this point of view, it is difficult to imagine Navin Ramgoolam falling below the bar of 35 tickets which would be a symbolic bar not to be crossed, but he must satisfy his current partners if he wishes to advance the negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, it is easy to see that the PTr is in a position of strength in this negotiation, and that it is able to dictate certain things to the MMM and the PMSD.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike these two parties, the PTr has a solid base throughout the territory, and can very well elect candidates in urban constituencies, while the MMM and the PMSD cannot claim to have the slightest influence in rural constituencies.<\/p>\n<p>From there, the balance of power is immediately posed. But Navin Ramgoolam must be a conciliator, since this is the image he wishes to broadcast today, especially since his own situation is absolutely unclear.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, he made a monumental mistake by deserting constituency 5 after the 2014 elections, which puts him in an extremely delicate situation since he is not elected in another constituency.<\/p>\n<p>This raises the question of his return to the 5, unless he wishes to explore another constituency. Either way, we&#8217;re guessing he&#8217;ll want to be surrounded by two running mates from the PTr harem. Navin Ramgoolam has enough political experience to know that a disagreement between running mates could cost him an election.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mauritius\">Mauritius<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mauritius.
