PP Sets Up Pérez Llorca to Succeed Mazón With Vox Backing

Vox support is expected to secure Juanfran Pérez Llorca’s investiture, positioning the PP to govern through 2027.

Overview

  • Carlos Mazón has resigned as president of the Generalitat Valenciana and is set to leave the regional PP leadership, though he will remain a deputy.
  • Juanfran Pérez Llorca is expected to face an investiture vote this week, with Vox’s support viewed as likely though not yet formalized.
  • The PP has ruled out an early regional election, gaining time to prepare for the scheduled May 2027 contest.
  • Pérez Llorca plans limited changes to the Consell but a major overhaul in the Presidency team, with current vice presidents Vicente Martínez Mus and Susana Camarero likely to stay.
  • The left, which focused on forcing Mazón’s exit and pushing for a snap vote, must now recalibrate its opposition beyond the 2024 ‘dana’ tragedy that drove calls for accountability.
