At the gallop of the polls that predict that there are three candidates with options of be victorious by the minimumthe PSC has called for the first time the “useful vote”in addition to “massive”to break the tie clearly in their favor and that Jaume Collboni be mayor without having to agree. With seven days to go before the polls, if the polls make one thing clear for now, it is that the alliances will be decisive in deciding who takes the lead in the municipal elections most disputed who have lived in Barcelona. And, in the case of the Socialists, according to the forecasts, they will have to choose to the right or to the left, between Junts and Comuns.
“I ask for the useful vote so that Barcelona has a strong mayor and a strong government. I ask for a large majority so as not to depend on anyone”, Collboni assured at a meeting in the Raval aimed at the elderly, in which he stressed that all the surveys conclude that there are “desire for change”. The leader of the Catalan socialists, Salvador Illahas rowed in the same direction and has claimed that the PSC is the “only solid project” in the Catalan capital. “Are the opponent to beatin Barcelona and in Catalonia”, has proclaimed the head of the opposition, who actively and passively insists that what happens in these Catalan elections will have an impact on the general elections and on the next Catalan elections.
The PSC does not hide its optimism or its euphoria before some polls that bring it closer to the mayoralty for the first time in the last 12 years. “We are first and we are going to win”, they proclaim to instill morale in the final stretch of the electoral time trial. The party’s machine room, which up to now considers that it has not made a single mistake, has no intention of changing its strategy in this campaign, which involves projecting a governance profile based on launching proposals, dodging the melee with the criticism launched by other candidacies and showing off the agenda of the Government of Pedro Sanchez.
