Pedro Bastidas (17 January 1976 – 19 April 2021) was a Venezuelan politician.[1] A member of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela, he served as Mayor of the Girardot Municipality from 2008 to 2021 and was on the Consejo Legislativo del estado Aragua [es] from 2004 to 2008. He also worked as an agricultural technician and held a degree in market research.[2] He died of COVID-19 on 19 April 2021, at the age of 45.[3]

Career

In the 2008 Venezuelan regional elections, he was elected Mayor of the Girardot Municipality over Justice First candidate Richard Mardo by just 151 votes.[4] He took office on 1 December 2008.[5] In 2009, he created the state-owned enterprise "Fábrica de Sueños",[6] which provided toys for poor children in the region.[7] In 2010, he provided universal Wi-Fi to the municipality at eight different locations across Maracay.[8][9][10][11] That same year, he founded Radio Girardot 96.1 FM,[12][13] on which he hosted his personal radio show, Conversando y Construyendo con Pedro Bastidas.[14] He also created a recording studio to feature local and national talent in Venezuela.[15][16][17][18]

In 2011, Bastidas' office helped form the union Plástico-Productiva Socialista, which produced water tanks, traffic cones, garbage cans, and several other plastic products.[19] As part of his policy for renewal and urban planning, he approved the construction of markets for informal traders in Maracay.[20][21][22][23][24] He also helped ease traffic in areas of high congestion with squares, walkways, and courtyards.[25][26][27][28][29][30] An asphalt plant was also created in Girardot,[31][32] built to ease the difficulty of obtaining asphalt through the private sector.[33] The Girardot Municipality's Mayoral Office has overseen the plant since December 2013.[34]

In the 2013 elections, Bastidas was re-elected as Mayor of Girardot Municipality with 51.53% of the votes, aided by support from the Great Patriotic Pole.[35][36] He was sworn in on 13 December 2013.[37]
