Overview
- Junts constituted the Comissió Municipal Territorial and formally opened the candidacy period on Monday, June 1, to choose its 2027 Barcelona mayoral nominee.
- Prospects must register by June 4, be validated on June 5, then collect endorsements in a six-day window that ends on June 11 when the CMT will decide the final selection method.
- If the CMT opts for primaries, internal campaigning is set for June 13–19 with votes on June 20–21 and a final proclamation around June 23.
- Several figures have entered or signalled bids: Glòria Freixa has announced her run, Jordi Martí Galbis and Pilar Calvo have declared willingness to stand, and Jaume Alonso Cuevillas remains undecided.
- The 20% endorsement rule and the commission’s power to proclaim or ratify a candidate preserve a path to avoid a damaging internal fight, and the choice will shape Junts’ strategy on housing, security and potential alliances in Barcelona.
