The electoral blow that the PSOE took two weeks ago in many more town halls and autonomous communities than those that appeared in its most pessimistic cabals has led it to have to gradually introduce adjustments in its strategy for the new appointment with the polls. One of the decisions that the party leadership has taken has been to displace the warning of the “risk” of a government of PP and Vox, which “will not be at the center” of the campaign, although accompanied by the indication that “it will not be You can stop saying.”

The explanation was given this Saturday by Pedro Sánchez himself during the closed-door meeting of the Federal Committee after one of the attendees questioned the advisability of stirring up “fear of the far right” again.. This tactic was already used in the regional elections in Andalusia, in which the popular Juanma Moreno achieved an absolute majority, and in those of Castilla y León, whose scrutiny left the first coalition between the formations of Alberto Núñez Feijóo and Santiago Abascal.

The Socialists are now going to try to focus on the economy to contrast their “progress” model with the “neoliberal one based on the weakening of the Welfare State and every man for himself” to which, they say, the PP “clings”.. In fact, the first act of the pre-campaign will be staged this Monday by the Minister of Economic Affairs, Nadia Calviño, who will present in Ferraz the main lines of the electoral program on this matter.

Even so, Sánchez insisted to his own that the possibility of a “right-wing and extreme-right” government cannot be “trivialized”, so, controlled, but it will continue to be one of the messages that are disseminated.
