In view of the results obtained in the three General Meetings, it seems that nothing has changed, but looking at country by country, we can see some changes.
In Álava, the decrease of pp stands out, with 12 thousand votes less, one third less than in the previous election date. But also that Elkarrekin Podemos has only achieved half of the votes that Podemos and Irabazi had. The PSE is the party that has risen the most, ahead of the PNV, which has fallen slightly. EH Bildu has won a juntero, although he has lost some votes. The reason for these changes? The PNV has used the voice of fear very well, against EH Bildu. The pp has been cast, but without repeating what happened in the Spanish elections, in which EH Bildu has removed the pp.En
Gipuzkoa, the PNV has won the duel between PNV and EH Bildu. Despite the small difference in the votes, the PNV has won two junters and junctions by an absolute majority. The PSE has won 4 000 votes, but it is a long way from the rise it has achieved in Bizkaia and Álava. Why hasn't EH Bildu overcome the PNV? In Gipuzkoa, the PNV has also carried out a very aggressive campaign against EH Bildu, but, contrary to what happened in several municipalities, EH Bildu has not obtained sufficient confidence to govern the Deputy. The reason for this calls for further analysis.
I would say that it is Bizkaia that has changed the least. The PNV has brought out two more seats, one to pp and one to EH Bildu, but it has not achieved an absolute majority, and the PSE has brought one more to pp.
Looking forward? I do not believe that anything will change; the agreement between the PNV and the PSE will be ratified in the three foreign parliaments. On the election night I listened to the leaders of the PNV who will talk to all parties, ready to reach agreements with everyone. I don't think so. In the previous legislature, other agreements were possible and the PNV and the PSE did not emerge from the majority they had in Parliament. I do not believe them, because even though there is a chance of obtaining larger majorities, they do not like them, because they fear the danger of jeopardizing their superiority. I refer to the PNV and EH Bildu agreement.
