Overview
- Vox rolled out its “¿Qué Almería quieres?” billboard campaign in El Ejido showing a burka-clad woman labeled PP and PSOE beside a bare-shouldered figure marked Vox, and plans further placements in Almería province.
- The PP-led El Ejido town hall condemned the ads as polarizing and is reviewing urgent legal measures to have the signage removed.
- The local PSOE lodged a National Police complaint accusing the campaign of inciting hate against migrants, and Izquierda Unida has referred the case to the State Prosecutor’s Office for potential hate-speech violations.
- Two of the posters were briefly covered with black tarps in an action Vox described as censorship under alleged PP pressure, a claim the municipal government rejects.
- Despite mounting legal challenges and formal complaints, the campaign remains active with additional billboards queued for installation.
