Never a defeat he knew so well to the PP. The popular lost seven seats (from 33 to 26) with respect to the regional elections of 2015, but the rise of Citizens, passing from 9 to 21 and the landing across the top of Vox, with 12, it gives them the possibility of ruling for the first time in Andalusia in 40 years.

“we’re elated. This is historic,” claimed this Sunday at the national headquarters of the PP. Not only was there no sorpasso Citizens, the scenario most feared in their ranks, but the rise of a new force to his right pushes them to the Palace of San Telmo. This is, at least, as we saw in the headquarters of the party in Madrid, where the defeat was celebrated as great triumphs, with all the dome popular clapping the leader, Paul Married, which also was the play -spent 12 of the 15 days of the campaign in Andalusia – in the press room.

The popular have no problem in agreeing with the formation of the extreme right, which, among other things, carries in its programme the abolition of the autonomies or of the law of gender-based violence. Their leader, Santiago Abascal, was a member of the PP. Married announced, nothing more to know the results of the elections, which opened the “door to negotiations,” and the national direction of the party assumes that “Vox has come to stay”. The popular support that fragmentation of the right, believe that it will remain in future electoral events (city general), and takes away the importance, noting that in the rest of Europe is already the case. However, Married assumed the “responsibility of rebuilding the centre-right” to be “everything to the right of the PSOE”. “With the historical outcome of Andalusia started the recovery of the space and what we do to lead the center-right,” he added.

The PP knew that Citizens would go up because he was convinced that in the previous regional elections, in 2015, had not yet “capitalized the jerk by the crisis of Catalonia”, and as it progressed the campaign detected the force with which it came to Vox. Proof of this is that in his last posts, Married hardened the tone to try to win back the voter escaped with the topics that going on in his electorate, as a heavy hand with immigration. That strategy opened up cracks in the party, because as they pointed to some of the leaders, voters might prefer “the original to the copy” and move closer to Vox supposed Piabet to lose votes from the center. Married he made it clear on Sunday that it considered that the results in Andalusia endorse his strategy, and a time to celebrate, the next January, the convention ideological national, you do not want more questions in the match. “The political project which was presented in the primary has been ratified. The PP has become, without complexes,” he proclaimed. “This is the project that is going to defeat the pro-independence in Catalonia and that you will not allow for a review of the history of Spain, nor in counter-terrorism or in the harmony of the Transition,” he added.

Married, explained that he had spoken with the popular candidate to the Board, Juan Manuel Moreno, to “offer” that was presented to the investiture. “The mandate of the andalusians has been sharp. Andalusia wanted to change, and you’ll have change. I’m going to introduce myself to the endowment,” said Moreno from Sevilla. The cries of victory were heard with the early figures from the count at the headquarters of the PP in andalusia. “It is time that you can make the story of change in Andalusia,” said the excandidato Javier Arenas, who won but was unable to rule in 2012. “It has ended the monopoly of a single party. I’m going to put immediately to work and talk with all the forces and groups with the aim of achieving a majority alternative to the socialist party,” insisted Brown.

The candidate of Citizens, John Marin, also announced that it would be submitted to the endowment. The PP has always upheld that rule in the list with the most votes, but it will not do in this case (it was the PSOE). Married insisted that the andalusians wanted to change and who should take the lead of their candidate. “Or Juanma or nothing”, warned sources of the national directorate. I won in Catalunya and would not be submitted to the endowment and now is third in Andalusia can’t pretend to preside over the Meeting, added the same sources.

“This is the first stone to return to the Government”, stated the leader of the PP, which at all times has raised the elections in andalusia as a first lap of the general.

The PP will leave more than 300,000 votes in respect of 2015 and fell back 28 years to match the floor of your candidate in 1990, Gabino Puche, but now you have an opportunity that always had eluded him. The popular stepped back a deputy in all the provinces, except Huelva, where he headed up the list, the number two, Moreno, Dolores Lopez. Came down to four seats in Almería and Málaga, where they had five, and they went down to three in Jaén and Seville, traditional strongholds of the socialist party.
