Overview

• The PSOE formally revoked its motion of censure and candidate Soraya García Mesa just hours before the scheduled extraordinary plenary on July 30.
• None of the five motion sponsors—four PSOE councillors and defected PP member José Antonio García Delgado—attended the session, depriving it of the required signatures under electoral law.
• The PP and Agrupación Progresista de Benaoján united their four votes to reject the motion and confirm Guillermo Becerra’s continuation as mayor.
• The Partido Popular has opened expulsion proceedings against José Antonio García Delgado for his earlier defection and support of the motion.
• PSOE leaders have pledged to pursue a constructive opposition through proposals, scrutiny of council agreements and potential legal challenges.
