Add coalition in Madrid, but in Vitoria no
  • The general coordinator of Podemos de Euskadi, Pilar Garrido, who was the head of the list of Gipuzkoa in Sumar, defended the presentation outside the coalition in the Spanish elections for the forthcoming votes of the Basque Parliament. “Sumar serves to mobilize the people of the Basque Country,” he said earlier; now he says that the phenomenon of Yolanda Díaz is not “articulated” in the Basque Country.

In the Spanish elections held on November 10, 2019, Podemos obtained a deputy in Gipuzkoa. Four years later, Podemos assured that they would appear in the Sumar coalition, created by Yolanda Díaz, and Pilar Garrido, general coordinator of Podemos in the Basque Country, presented to represent Gipuzkoa. "Adding is the future," Garrido said in the middle of the campaign, and stressed that "more people" were mobilized through fusion. The EiTB Focus survey did not provide for Sumar representatives in Gipuzkoa and voters confirmed it in the July elections. They achieved a single Member in Bizkaia.

We can from the Basque Country now undertake to present its list, together with Equo and the Green Alliance, for the elections of the Parliament of Vitoria, and has a list head: Look at Gorrotxategi. In the act of notification, Pilar Garrido says that the configuration of the Sumar coalition was a "mistake" and considers that Podemos has "more strength and more structure" in the Basque Country. On the contrary, the phenomenon of Yolanda Díaz "is not articulated in the Basque Country". The Sumar coalition has been informed "officially."

The Journal reports that Garrido has implied that Podemos will not allow the list to change according to Sumar. Because in the Spanish Congress of Deputies there are no representatives of Podemos in the Basque Country. Sumar obtained a single deputy in the Basque Country, in Bizkaia, and Lander Martínez was the head of the list, before Garrido the general coordinator of Podemos in the Basque Country, currently the key figure of Sumar.
