The Fall of Puigdemont and the Ascent of Catalan Alliance
An internal poll has recently been published that reveals a drastic change in the political dynamics of Catalonia. According to the study, which has been leaked by The Objective, the figure of Carles Puigdemont is losing weight and his formation, together, faces a possible loss of seats in the next election.
The PSC on the edge of the absolute majority
The poll indicates that the PSC, led by Salvador Illa, would be consolidating as the dominant political strength, with expectations to gain between 43 and 45 deputies, thus increasing its distance from Together, which could be reduced to between 27 and 29 representatives.
A complex scenario for Together and ERC
The Catalan Alliance Competition, which has experienced a significant increase in popular support, has left together in a precarious position. Its strategic indefinition and the lack of a clear message have contributed to a climate of political instability, with an ERC that could also be reduced to between 17 and 19 members.
The reconfiguration of the opposition
On the other hand, constitutionalist parties like the PP and Vox are in an upward trajectory, with the PP that could maintain or even increase their representation to 17 seats, while Vox could see an increase that would carry them between 13 and 15 members.
The impact of the Orriols effect
The poll also emphasizes the impact of the Orriols effect, which has benefited from Catalan Alliance, which could range from 2 to 8 representatives. In contrast, the pro -independence parties could lose 8 to 13 seats in total.
An uncertain future for Catalonia
With the municipal elections of 2027 and the regional ones of 2028 on the horizon, the results of this poll propose a scenario of great instability. If the coalition between PSC, ERC and Commons does not reach an absolute majority, Catalonia could face a prolonged political blockade.
In short, the Catalan political landscape is at a time of transition, with the PSC consolidating its leadership and together struggling to maintain its relevance. The reconfiguration of political blocks and the increase of Catalan alliance could mark a new chapter in Catalan politics, at a time when the need for dialogue and consensus becomes more urgent than ever.
