Pilar Alegria prepares to leave the government and disembark by forced marches Aragonwhere he will assume the candidacy of the PSOE for the elections of February 8. Alegría is the candidate, even though no election has taken place … primaries to confirm it, an internal electoral process which however ensured that it will be promoted in the coming weeks. This will be the first consultation that she will face, since during her election as general secretary, she did not submit to the criteria of the activists, because her opponent ended up withdrawing prematurely from the race for lack of sufficient support.
The process does not present any difficulty, there is no rival or possible alternative, but the fact that it is celebrated leaves Miguel Ángel Gallardo in evidence. The PSOE candidate in Extremadura is without having undergone primaries. In the midst of legal proceedings and aware of its weakness and its internal questions, Gallardo tried to silence all debate: verbalize, first, one’s desire to run and, then, formalize the mandate to be a candidate without the approval of activism.
The leader of Extremadura clung to the urgency of early elections to obtain his express confirmation. The Regional Executive unanimously agreed, demand “exceptionalism” for these primaries and transferred it to the organizational secretary of the PSOE, Rébéca Torrothat this dynamic had already been applied in similar situations.
The timetable to which Alegría will have to submit is not yet defined and, in its surroundings, there are calls for the call to be official. It is expected that Jorge Azcon take the plunge next Monday to then launch both the organic calendar and the one concerning your departure from the government. In Moncloa, people are already working in the hope that a government overhaul will be necessary in the coming weeks, even if Alegría’s entourage confirms that next Tuesday he will still participate as spokesperson in the press conference after the government meeting.
The fact that the candidate has a seat in the Council of Ministers incurs the regime of incompatibilities, which places its horizon at Moncloa in the presentation of the lists before the court. Until then, a procedure which It takes place 22 days after the election was called.Alegría should abandon her government responsibilities, where she is the voice of the Executive and the director of Education and Sports.
