Commons agrees with the PSC to withdraw their Senate candidacies in Girona, Lleida and Tarragona

An agreement between the Socialists and the left-wing coalition led by Ada Colau has been reached for the Senate in four Catalan provinces. The PSC and Comuns, part of the Frente Amplio, announced they will only compete in the Barcelona constituency. Comuns will not present a candidacy in Girona, Lleida, and Tarragona in exchange for one of the socialists' autonomic designations. The move aims to counter the Partido Popular and Vox, and also affects Esquerra.
