Podemos has emphasized this Monday the call to Yolanda Díaz to seek “unity” in space after the EL MUNDO survey in which it is certified that the division into two candidacies would mean a reduction for the alternative left to the PSOE in the general elections .
“It is unquestionable that it is incontrovertible that unity is necessary,” said Podemos co-spokesman Pablo Fernández, who remarked that, beyond the specific polls, “the Electoral Law in Spain is what it is.” “That is why we continue to say that it is better that there be a coalition agreement between Podemos and Sumar with the clear objective of revalidating the coalition government in order to continue carrying out social policies and continue transforming with more force,” he concluded.
A Sigma Dos survey for EL MUNDO shows this Monday the two possible scenarios: that of a unitary candidacy and that of Podemos and Sumar separately. In the first, the joint list yields a result of 45 seats for the space while facing it would be 43. Two less. With Yolanda Díaz achieving 35 deputies for the eight of the purple ones.
The unit would give more seats right now despite the fact that separately it is capable of questioning more people. But it is that the Electoral Law greatly penalizes the division into small provinces. Sigma Dos estimates a voting intention of 16.3% going together while on its own Sumar would achieve 12.3% and Podemos 5.5%. That would give 17.8%.
At a press conference held by the national leadership of Podemos, Fernández explained that his party is open to reaching an agreement with Díaz despite not having gone to support her at the presentation of her candidacy. “But not so much because of what the polls say, but because we believe that it is the way to revalidate and reissue the coalition government,” she said.
The also co-spokesperson, Isa Serra, has abounded that Podemos has a “will to agree” and has placed the ball in Díaz’s court. “She has to decide if she wants to be the unit’s candidate,” she stressed.
Serra has acknowledged that they have not yet heard from the vice president about the role she is going to assume in the electoral campaign. Podemos has asked her to participate actively to support the candidates of Unidas Podemos, but she has been expressing her reservations about holding acts where the space of the alternative left is in conflict. As are the cases of Madrid, the Valencian Community, Aragon, the Canary Islands or Asturias.
Despite this, Podemos insists and puts more pressure on Díaz, to whom they have wanted to convey “the political importance of” the result of those elections in future general elections. Hence the insistence on asking for “clear support” from the United We Can candidates.
