Overview

  • Podemos confirmed a single-party list for the 8 February regional election led by María Goicoechea.
  • Izquierda Unida and Sumar registered a joint coalition without Podemos just hours before the filing cutoff.
  • Reporting indicates the left of the PSOE will field three separate options: Chunta Aragonesista, IU–Sumar, and Podemos.
  • Podemos said its unity proposal modeled on Unidas por Extremadura was rejected by other parties and described its ticket as broad and plural.
  • Goicoechea was endorsed by 88% of Podemos Aragón members and previously directed the Aragonese Institute for Women, while former deputy Andoni Corrales has challenged the primary process.
