The PSOE accuses Alberto Núñez Feijóo’s PP of having used the theft of 124 votes in a post office as a “smokescreen” to try to “cover up” the cases of harassment affecting María Guardiola’s party three days before the elections in Extremadura. “The Feijóo PP is on the outskirts of democracy. In true Trumpist style and without any proof, they fueled the pucherazo deception,” says Pedro Sánchez’s party in a statement in which it recalls that the Civil Guard described the theft as a “common crime.”
Feijóo and Guardiola raised, without any evidence, the specter of an electoral coup, calling into question the preservation of these votes. In other elections, they also encouraged these types of theories due to the delay in the arrival of ballots. Sánchez’s people consider that on this occasion it is a “smokescreen as crude as it is dangerous” which aims to “cover up” the scandals of recent days.
elDiario.es revealed that the Extremadura PP hid a councilor’s complaint for the “sexist treatment” of its mayor. “If they call us sexist treatment, it will be chaos,” said a PP leader who tried to hide the matter. Added to this is the fact that Guardiola had his cousin, convicted of gender-based violence, as his driver and fired him after it was revealed that he was in the Viogen system.
These are some of the cases that the PSOE considers that the PP tried to cover up with the punch theory, in addition to the call of the judge who is investigating the DANA in Feijóo to testify as a witness on January 9.
There is also “the nervousness of Guardiola, facing a Vox that the PP has whitewashed and which is eating away at its ground”, say the socialists in the press release, in reference to the price that the far right imposes on the president of Extremadura, who brought forward the elections with the intention of avoiding depending on the party of Santiago Abascal.
“Less plots and more explanations. Citizens deserve to know why Guardiola protected the mayor of Navalmoral de la Mata and not the victim”, say the socialists who call on the president to do so during the RTVE debate “which she refuses to attend”.
“Of course, with Feijóo as leader, defender of “hard divorces” and who also does not have much democratic habit of attending debates, what can we expect? Silence in the face of cases of sexist violence and empty chairs in debates are trademarks of the house”, conclude the socialists.
