We also want to decide in Madrid

  • The extreme right has not brought any neo-democratic government to the Spanish State. From Euskal Herria, this is the most obvious conclusion that can be drawn from these elections. Moreover, this right is increasingly smaller in Hego Euskal Herria, and it is only in Navarre that it has achieved representation, but regressing in the votes. The main key to the ten-point increase in participation has been based on this fear.

In Hego Euskal Herria, the most notable are the rises of PNV, PSOE and EH Bildu, and above all the first two. The PNV has broken the record of votes, thus achieving a rise in some general elections in the Spanish State. He has sold that his Members are decisive in Madrid, as has happened on numerous occasions, enabling the governments of the PSOE and the PP, and the citizens have believed him, even more so now if those votes could be to face the extreme right. But EH Bildu voters have also agreed that their votes can be decisive, and even more so with the motion of censure on pp.

As for governance, Pedro Sánchez will follow his path in Madrid, but in the Basque field the strength of the couple PNV-PSE has become clear. If identity issues do not incite the alliance, such as the right to decide or the like, they may have a long-term romance. At the moment, it does not seem that EH Bildu and Podemos, which has suffered a huge loss, are very frightened of the convenient performance of jeltzales and socialists.

These results can also be the final straight line of the municipal and foral elections in May. They are going to be very different, but being well-positioned now will help in the next few occasions there are also good results, and vice versa. In this respect, Navarre will be of particular importance, as the ratification of the 2015 change is at stake. That is why the starting point is not bad. Competition will be very tight, that is certain, but Navarre Suma has not added anything, on the contrary, and that is not bad data. The greatest danger is that UPN and PSN reach an absolute majority, and the results managed at this time would make it possible. It will not be so easy that the revitalization of the corralito in Navarre will be carried out by those who are engaged in stabbing in Spain, but the strength of the Spanish union should not be underestimated.
