The party wants strengthen the union formations to the left of Socialist Party who decided to appear together at the 2023 electionsand for this it will begin to take the first steps in January, as different sources in this space explain to Confidencial Digital.
Objective of the electoral coalition
The training aims close the bases on which a sort of electoral coalition which brings together all that remainsin order to gather all the votes that remain out of reach of the socialists.
A task which today seems more than complicated, due to heavy wear that the brand has suffered since 2023.
Internal tensions and ruptures
The agreement was already hard to get then, when the entry of Podemos was achieved to the extreme after an open confrontation between the two sides. Ione Belarra He denounced a veto against Irene Montero and demanded a place for the former Minister of Equality. Sumar rejected it and the purples relented.
Just four months later, They left the parliamentary group to go to Mixed. An exit that Mès resignedthe coalition formed with Compromís.
Bad results
The departure of the spokesperson, Iñigo Errejónwas an earthquake that still causes injuries. A situation which was accompanied by poor election results in Galicia – where they did not obtain representation -, in the Basque Country – a deputy -, in Catalonia – En Comú Podem saved the face of the vice-president by maintaining the same result -, and finally a European crash which caused Díaz’s resignation as organic leader.
The surveys reflect a continued collapse of this ideological space, which was practically on par with Vox two and a half years ago but which would now remain around the fifteen placesaccording to studies published in recent months.
Fall in the polls
In this context, and taking into account the impossibility of raising Díaz’s profile with measures that warm in the electorate – as was achieved in the last legislature with the labor reform and social agreements – the new address of Sumar, directed by Lara Hernández, will attempt group into a block very heterogeneous and with many internal frictions within this legislature.
In 2023, the progress of the elections took them by surprise, but now the direction of space founded by Yolanda Díaz wants to work with margin.
More Madrid, Compromís, Izquierda Unida…
Groups like Más Madrid, spearhead of the left in the Community, continue to maintain a iron stand to the idea with which Sumar was born, of constituting a broad front that brings together political parties diverse and pluralas well as Izquierda Unida, which has already reached an agreement with Before Andalusia to fight Juan Manuel Moreno Bonilla with María Jesús Montero.
The Comprom leadership voted to remain in the parliamentary group, even if Mès finally gave up, and the regionalist party continues aligned with Díaz despite the fact that its internal management was not appreciated. The decision to protect Pedro Sanchez Addressing the commission charged with investigating DANA’s political responsibilities could have meant the end of relations between the two groups.
In January, Sumar will take a step forward to lead, once againthe space of plurinational leftand it remains to be seen how the progressive groups that joined Yolanda Díaz’s ship in 2023 will react.
