Metropolitan Area of Granada Mayoralties: PSOE vs. Popular Party in the Battlegrounds

The Metropolitan Area of ​​Granada is playing its mayoralties this 28M. The people of Granada are called to vote, like the rest of Spaniards, to elect their municipal representatives for the next four years in elections where, among other factors, the strength of the PSOE in the big cities will be seen, especially after the elections autonomous regions, the Popular Party dyes a large part of this territory blue, especially in the socialist bastions.

At this electoral event, the PSOE arrives in a good position in the Belt, since, counting the capital, it governs four of the five main urban centers (Armilla, Maracena, Atarfe), while the Popular Party holds the government in Las Gabias and rowdy.

But, like everything in life, there are nuances. The PSOE arrived at the Plaza del Carmen after the 2+2 did not add up, despite being the list with the most votes, and factors such as the non-arrival of the AESIA could work against it; for his part, in maracena, one of the traditional socialist fiefdoms, reaches the end of the campaign with the kidnapping of the mayor as a backdrop, a problem fueled by the recent lifting of the summary secrecy; in Atarfe things do seem simpler, since the government has been in the hands of the socialists since the beginning of the democratic period, except for one mandate; also seems easy in Vestwhere the PSOE remained one councilor from the absolute majority, improving its data from 2015.

For its part, the PP has an uncertain future, at least in Albolote, one of the most fragmented municipalities in the province. Salustiano Ureña is the current mayor of the town, after having led the Socialists by only 50 votes; and something similar happens in The Gabiasin socialist hands from 1979 to 2019, when a pact between PP and Ciudadanos took away the baton of command.
