The CIS of Tezanos predicts the victory of the socialist Óscar Puente in Valladolid
The CIS has carried out a pre-election survey on the occasion of the municipal and regional elections to be held on May 28, which includes vote estimation data in the Valladolid City Council, in which the PSOE of the current mayor Óscar Puente would repeat as the most voted list, with 37.6% of the votes and between 11 and 12 councilors (it currently has 11); ahead of the PP, which would also grow to 33.2% and could reach between 9 and 11 councilors and with VTLP as the third force with 13.6% of the votes and 3 or 4 representatives.
In Valladolid, according to these data, the PSOE will be the first political force at the polls on May 28 with 37.6% of the votes (almost 2 points more than in 2019, when it obtained 35.7%), which that would serve to at least repeat the current number of municipal seats and even win one up to twelve.
The Popular Party, with Jesús Julio Carnero as candidate for Mayor, would achieve 33.2% of the votes -three points more than in 2019 when it was left with 30%- and would be between nine and eleven councilors -currently it has nine representatives-.
In this situation, Puente would need to agree again to be sworn in as mayor, since he would require two or three more supports, which could once again come from the left-wing platform Valladolid Take the Word – a confluence of Izquierda Unida, Podemos, Equo and Alianza Verde-. This formation would be the third most voted force, with 13.6% of the votes, a percentage slightly higher than the one it received in 2019 (13.5%) and which then provided it with three councilors. On this occasion, the CIS assures that it could repeat that figure or reach four councilors.
Vox, fourth force
In this way, the current members of the government team (PSOE and VTLP) would have between 14 and 16 councilors in the Corporation.
Vox would be the fourth most voted force with 9.2%, it would grow almost 3 points compared to the last municipal elections (6.35 percent in 2019) and the CIS attributes between 2 and 3 councilors.
Ciudadanos would disappear from the municipal Corporation, since the estimate foresees that it will obtain 1.8% of the votes, compared to the 12.6% it received in 2019.
