The Impact of Elections on Political Parties
When the parties lose out in the elections and their members lose all their shares of power, as well as the associated income and benefits, an internal crisis is unleashed that has been latent during the boom years. This is the current scenario of ERC, a situation experienced by most political forces throughout history.
The ERC Crisis After the Elections
After suffering significant losses in the last elections, ERC’s internal harmony has been affected, leading to a search for those responsible. The renunciation of the independence path has led to punishment by the electorate, which has generated internal tensions and accusations.
The role of Sergi Sabrià
Sergi Sabrià, involved in a scandal related to offensive posters, has left his position and points to Oriol Junqueras as the main person responsible for the situation. Junqueras’ strategy has generated discontent among party members, raising questions about his future leadership.
The Internal Tension in ERC
Internal tensions have manifested themselves in public statements and disagreements over the future of the party. Uncertainty over the investiture of the new president of the Generalitat has exacerbated the internal crisis, leaving ERC in a complicated situation.
Future Perspectives for ERC
Despite the current crisis, there are possible less traumatic solutions for ERC, although they would involve facing internal and external challenges. ERC’s history demonstrates its ability to overcome crises, which raises questions about its future amid the current political situation.
