The large financing of businessmen for campaigns depends on the expectations of victory
The large financing of businessmen for campaigns depends on the expectations of victory, obviously. An alliance of Ciudadanos and PSOE in San Bartolomé de Tirajana would help the latter more than the former. While in Las Palmas capital part of the leadership of Cs has moved to CC and Nueva Canarias, this is what has happened in the Cabildo of Gran Canaria, the entry into the local government group of the orange party can serve to end the leadership of AV, which will decide in 2022 whether to run in the elections with the PP. For now, AV has stopped its attacks on Cs after the municipal absence at the World Travel Market in London in anticipation of proposing an electoral agreement for the 2023 elections.
The alliances are open precisely because of the hinge that AV is for the PP. The PSOE will not begin formal negotiations with Cs, which controls Tourism, until AV formally clears its future with the PP. In the 2019 elections, Cs had, in the midst of the orange growth wave, the not inconsiderable figure of 988 votes. AV obtained 4.771 votes, PSOE a total of 4.323, the old ICAN obtained 2.915 and CC, 2.195 votes. In San Bartolomé de Tirajana, another key will be the mobilization of the vote given that in 2019 there were 17.911 citizens who went to vote, 55,99%, while the abstentions were 14.076. That is, 44,01% of the population did not go to vote. In this context, the almost 1.000 votes from Ciudadanos are a tasteful dish for orange negotiations between AV and the Canarian PSOE. Cs celebrates just 3 years in San Bartolomé de Tirajana with the sword of Damocles hanging over his future. He began his career in Gran Canaria step by step, reaching the national arena with an overwhelming drive and then falling resoundingly, breaking inside and ending up almost in irrelevance.
In 2019, the PSOE chose to allow its entry into the government group, seeking a very comfortable government with some of its "orange lines" after a defeat against AV. Now Cs has to find a way to relaunch the party in the south of Gran Canaria and also has to deal with the direct attacks of AV-PP to finish them off. In 2016, Cs landed in the south of Gran Canaroo, becoming a political force of social democratic origin, redefined after centre, liberal, progressive and without an apostrophe, which participated for the first time in local elections in 2019. It consolidated and entered the south. of Gran Canaria but only achieved a little more than 5% of the votes. But for now there are no signs that he has found the formula for Ciudadanos to survive. The flight of officials and militants largely spurred by the PP. "To resist is to win," say some leaders.
