Overview

  • Victoria Fernández, José Antonio Romero and Ángel Ortiz formally submitted the required endorsements and are listed as candidates pending validation by the party in Seville.
  • The endorsement threshold was 111 signatures, equal to 15% of Córdoba’s party membership, and Fernández reported 138 endorsements, comfortably above the minimum.
  • The internal campaign period runs from 17 to 25 September and the first-round membership vote is scheduled for Saturday, 26 September, with a second round on 3 October only if no candidate wins over 50 percent.
  • Romero positions himself as a change candidate backed by figures such as Isabel Ambrosio and Antonio Hurtado, Ortiz emphasizes participation and unity, and Fernández speaks from an establishment background and proposes housing and district participation priorities.
  • The chosen nominee will lead the PSOE list in municipal elections and the primary is being framed as a test of party renewal as PSOE seeks to recover ground against stronger PP and Vox rivals.
