La Junta Electoral permite tachar el nombre de Puente de la papeleta del PSOE en Valladolid para el 29-N
La JEC no autoriza suprimir al ministro dimitido pese a su renuncia a las listas y ratifica que no hace falta imprimir una nueva candidatura
The mood of the PSOE is rising again. The unexpected resignation of Óscar Puente, timely for many socialists, has had an instant soothing effect less than three weeks after the 29-N. Even the heavyweights of Ferraz and La Moncloa, who a week ago were giving up on the general elections following the rail disaster in Urda, have regained optimism with Puente's assumption of responsibilities "by dignity" and "standing up to" Spain.
Socialists consulted believe this allows them to differentiate themselves from the reaction of the PP in other catastrophes. Puente has given a "first-level political lesson. Not everyone is equal," says an autonomous president. The defeat of Donald Trump by a landslide in the mid-term US elections, with unthinkable victories in Republican strongholds such as Texas, Kansas, or Iowa, has also contributed to restoring hope for another impossible resurgence like 2023.
"It happened in Brazil, it just happened in the US, and it will soon happen in Spain," said Pedro Sánchez.
