Feijóo Packs PP Lists With Hardline Voices and Experienced Managers

The move aims to present the PP as able to reclaim right‑leaning voters, providing experienced ministers for government.

Overview

  • The PP confirmed Thursday that Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo will be number two and Borja Sémper number three on its Madrid list, a high‑profile pairing meant to appeal to both hardline and moderate voters.
  • Génova has placed several regional ministers and mayors on national tickets, which will require them to resign regional posts and trigger cabinet reshuffles in the autonomous governments they leave.
  • PSOE officials in Toledo sharply criticized Mayor Carlos Velázquez this week for accepting a Congress candidacy, accusing him of using the mayoralty as a stepping stone and diverting attention from local problems.
  • Vox announced a broad renewal of more than half its heads of list and named Galician lead candidates as clashes and arrests followed a Santiago Abascal rally in A Coruña that led to injuries and police detentions.
  • Frente Amplio publicly rejected wider withdrawals of its Congress lists after the Teruel dispute, underscoring growing tensions on the left over tactical pacts and vote‑management ahead of the 29 November election.
