A procedure. At a critical moment for the country, almost as a cover for the coronavirus crisis and with nocturnal results. The third Citizen Assembly of Podemos had no doubts, unknowns or emotion. It was a step to consolidate the leadership of Pablo Iglesias in the party and shield a formation to his measure, just before the party, being in the Government, experiences the wear and tear of managing a historical economic and social crisis. The doubt was mobilization, support. In total, 59,201 registered and registered have participated in these telematic votes, according to data provided by the party. It represents only 11% of the total registered, which today stands at 526,166 people.
The data with which this third Citizen Assembly, held electronically, has obtained, a situation that has curtailed the possibility of holding debates on the proposals of Churches for the party, evidences the procedure: Churches has obtained 53,167 votes, while the Another candidate running for the general secretary, Fernando Barredo , has stayed at 7.8% (4,503 votes).
Gone are the intense debates, the clashes to establish a party model and leadership. In the first Assembly, Churches in front of Teresa Rodríguez and Pablo Echenique -one outside of Podemos, the other parliamentary spokesman now-. In the second, the fight at the face of a dog between Iglesias and Íñigo Errejón, who opened the match in channel, an injury that bled for many months and ended with the second also outside the purple formation.
