The president of the PP of the Canary Islands, Manuel Domínguez, does not want a great candidate in Las Palmas to choose to control a good part of the power of the island and, with these goals, the satellite party in the south of Gran Canaria, AV, does not stop its plans for preventive purposes: establish yourself. The empathy with the PP of Gran Canaria is total but who heads the first place in the city of Las Palmas depends on the regional management. Domínguez is holding meetings with directors of companies without a political profile who have told him not to lead lists for May 28, 2023 in his belief that the Canarian PP must wait to obtain regional representation to establish an agreement with CC. In the south of Gran Canaria, AV is pressured to go alone but the glue with the PP depends on its top leader: Marco Aurelio Pérez, who does not want to find himself in no man's land as happened in 2019.
AV has begun to prepare the 2023 local elections in case there is finally no large coalition of the center-right of Gran Canaria to which Unidos por Gran Canaria joins. The formation that emerged in Tunte, the most voted in 2019 but that does not govern by a PSOE-NC pact, seeks to take power from Nueva Canarias in the two Tirajanas and maintains a calculated ambiguity with the PSOE. The AV plumbers in Tunte conduct surveys that "are going very well in Tirajana, but without a candidate that generates traction in the political capital of Las Palmas, power will not be touched in the Cabildo of Gran Canaria, and that would condemn the municipality to be victim of an investment brake," said an AV political source who requested anonymity.
Curiously, the attacks that have occurred on the congress of officials from the south of the island last November in Maspalomas have been directed at NC in Santa Lucía de Tirajana and suggesting that Concepción Narváez (PSOE) would have been betrayed by the party of its partners based in Vecindario. In both 2015 and 2019, the announcements of agreements between PP and AV were made in the month of November. But in Las Palmas he would still be playing tricks with the candidate from Las Palmas and in AV there is a theory: either he controls the entire south of the island or it is better to establish himself on his own if he does not have a powerful candidate in the City Council. from Las Palmas.
