• Elections 2019. Íñigo Errejón plans to present lists against Pablo Iglesias in 13 provinces
  • 10-N. Compromís runs away from Pablo Iglesias and opts for Íñigo Errejón
  • Politics: Teresa Rodríguez asks Pablo Iglesias for 'separation': she wants to present the 10N as Adelante Andalucía

Íñigo Errejón's decision to stand for the next general elections is preventing Pablo Iglesias from adding new actors to United We Can. Two examples: Compromís and CHA , who have been tempted by the purples , choose to ally with More Madrid. A scenario that adds to the tension and the challenge that we can keep alive Andalucía , which asks to have its own group in Congress and make new primaries to choose the candidates for 10-N. But not having the absolute support of IU, Rodriguez does not take the step, at least for now, to break with Iglesias.

Andalusia

Teresa Rodríguez, leader of Podemos Andalucía, keeps her pulse alive with Pablo Iglesias for the control of the party in this community. Yesterday he wanted to keep his order alive: give up the brand to present himself as Adelante Andalucía ; have a voice in Congress within the United We can as the commons of Ada Colau; and hold primaries to elect candidates. That is, to be able to place like-minded people, since they do not have deputies from their circle in Congress because Anticapitalists , a current to which they belong, resigned from participating in the primaries for not sharing the process. But this challenge, with which Rodríguez has been dying for months, but that does not end, is rejected by Iglesias: who denies new primaries and confirms that the United Podemos brand will be throughout the territory.

This Tuesday there was a key meeting between the formations that make up Adelante Andalucía (Podemos, IU, Left Andalusian and Primavera Andaluza ) to decide their strategy for 10-N. The appointment, which lasted for more than four hours, evidenced the different positions of Podemos and IU, which is committed to remaining under the umbrella of United Podemos. Thus, in the absence of a common position, both forces decided to consult with their national directorates for a solution. The appointment was important because Rodriguez has not consummated his break with Iglesias. By not having the endorsement of IU, the leader of Podemos Andalucía maintains its demand to appoint its candidates and have autonomy, but do not consume the warnings of rupture that for months has encouraged its formation.

In this community, Errejón's claim is to be able to present lists at least in Seville, Malaga and Cádiz

Aragon

Chunta Aragonesista has become the new desire party for Iglesias and Errejón. New battle between the two after Compromís. The leadership of Podemos Aragón tried to close the Errejón step by raising in this community "a candidacy that collects the greatest number of people and progressive sensibilities." They opened contacts with Equo, IU, CHA to explore an agreement. José Luis Soro , president of Chunta Aragonesista, acknowledged yesterday that since last week he has conversations with Nacho Escartín (Podemos) and Álvaro Sanz (IU). But this Tuesday night, he began negotiations with the Errejón party, which again seems to win the pulse to Podemos, because CHA is committed to that alliance. In addition, CHA and Compromís maintain a great relationship. "You have to fight abstention and channel the vote of abstention," said Soro yesterday, the same message as More Madrid. He even advanced that he assumed that the party would be called More Country . «It is the priority line. Do not forget that Podemos is responsible for the situation that has happened these months, ”he reflected, making clear his commitment to Errejón. CHA also rejects an alliance with Podemos headed by Pablo Echenique. On Friday the National Committee must confirm the commitment to Errejón.

Catalonia

The commons , with Ada Colau in the lead, have become one of the faithful squires of Iglesias. The autonomy and hands-free that we can grant to the mayor of Barcelona means that Catalonia In Comú do not hesitate to reissue your alliance. Freedom to make lists, own voice in Congress ... "Everything that is fragmentation and division does not add up," proclaimed its parliamentary spokesman Jaume Asens .

This does not mean that the former leader of Podemos will not present a list at least for Barcelona. In fact, it is among his plans. We must remember that Errejón has a great predicament in Catalonia, among other things, because of its handling of Catalan, which is very fluid. There he has many contacts and trustworthy people - he lived there for a time. As far as this newspaper has been able to know, there are no contacts or scores on Joan Coscubiela , former ICV deputy.

Galicia

In this community, there will be competition. United We can count on Galicia in Common as a partner -We can, IU and Equo-. A sector led by Yolanda Díaz and Antón Gómez Reino , two faithful of Iglesias who will maintain their position in the confederal group. Even so, In Marea - former members of Podemos - they have offered Errejón for an alliance, and they have opened the door to Carolina Bescansa number one . Errejón has interests in La Coruña or Pontevedra. In Marea ensures that you are "in permanent contact" with the "environment" of Compromís and Más Madrid.

'Errejonist' territories

Aragon, Murcia or the Basque Country are territories that internally in Podemos are branded related to errejonism . However, the addresses of these communities have ruled out splits or changes in the lists. They also consider that Errejón "will have little space to compete." However, the sources consulted suggest that there may be movements in the bases.

The two castles

In both Castilla y León and Castilla La Mancha there will be no competition, since Errejón's party will not present lists. The decision could also be extended to Extremadura, with Badajoz's doubt.

Asturias

It is another of the constituencies marked to attend. Gaspar Llamazares, former leader of IU and currently top leader of Actúa , has offered publicly but errejonista sources discard that possibility to represent two different projects.

Valencian Community

After Compromís' decision to want to ally with Errejón, the picture is clear. There will be coalition and a central axis of the Madrid-Valencia candidacy; Errejón-Oltra, as main references. United We can return to attend alone, as it did on April 28. "We take note and keep talking," Iglesias replied to Oltra in a message, emoticon through.

Balearics

Més has chosen and will opt for ERC, closing the door to United Podemos and Errejón. Here there will be grief without alliances in between and with the peculiarity that the purple spokesman is a recognized errejonista , Juan Pedro Yllanes .

Equo

The ecological formation is broken between the supporters of one and the other. This week, the bases will decide who they join with, but Juan López Uralde , one of his most visible and media faces has already said he will be faithful to Iglesias. Territories like Madrid or Valencia, the most important for the formation and of more weight, are in favor of breaking the alliance with United We can and go with the party of Errejón.

Carmena gets ready for the Errejón campaign

Manuela Carmena rejected the offer to run for general elections with Íñigo Errejón but she is willing to participate in some way in the electoral campaign to support the party she attended last May to the municipal elections in Madrid. Elections in which he won for the first time in votes but in which he did not get enough seats to govern along with the PSOE.

"I will try to put everything that I can from me," said the former mayor of Madrid at Cadena Ser, where she celebrated the emergence of More Madrid on the national political scene for the November 10 elections. «I am very happy with the step that Íñigo Errejón has taken. There is a left to the left of the constructive PSOE, positive, ”he said.

Fuentes de Más Madrid are clear that the former Madrid governor is a powerful political asset and they assume they will have her during the campaign. What is not clear yet, because there is still a lot, is how it will be. If enhancing your visibility in interviews in the media or if participating with Errejón in acts of the new. Or both options. Of course, that he is going to put "everything he can" is considered very important because of his ancestry on the left before a duel with Pablo Iglesias.
