Have voted 'yes' to a war , ” elena valenciano stated with some bitterness after leaving the chamber. The head of international relations of the psoe acknowledged that her parliamentary group had not been comfortable in the debate and that the criticism from gaspar llamazares (iu) had been hard to digest.As a consequence of this measure, mellado has already left the chamber and yesterday joined the national headquarters of the pp, where from now on he will work in principle on tasks unrelated to communication. Since 1996, with the first aznar government, mellado has represented the continuity - now truncated - of the group's information policy, with spokespersons such as luis de grandes and eduardo zaplana. The decision of the pp spokesperson has surprised the parliamentary group itself, but also in other political and professional bodies, where the until now press chief was one of the best-known journalists and valued for his long experience in that task.
Mellado, who has not received any explanation , said goodbye this weekend to the pp deputies and the spokespersons for the other groups, and also to the secretary general of the chamber and the staff working in congress. Many 'popular Special Database deputies expressed their surprise at soraya sáenz de santamaría's decision, also taken when the legislature is ending and new general elections are already announced.Sources from the socialist party of madrid do not recognize the existence of any internal survey that gives their candidate to the community a voting intention of 28% as has been published, a figure that would be much worse than that obtained by rafael simancas, between 7 and 8% lower. They assure that it is too early to do serious surveys, that they do not have them yet because they do not have enough money, but "In any case we are very far from may 5 , the start date of the campaign." they add that pretending that, in these circumstances, there is a firm and decided intention to vote is very unreliable : no one has a vote decided in two months' time. Rather, changes of opinion as far back as may 22 are more than likely.
The level of abstention, the blank vote, the effect of third parties and a host of sociological factors are variables to cast doubt on any survey, they say in the psm. The madrid socialists are concerned about the strength of the monolithic right-wing vote for esperanza aguirre, now helped by emotional effects, such as her illness, which generates a very appreciable extra adhesion and sympathy. However, the psm has its capacity to mobilize and “smash the streets , the towns, without stopping until may. Militancy on the left is militancy, conviction.” tomás gómez 's team believes that it has a fixed vote , which may be around 30%, but they will have to fight against two dangerous psychological factors: the demoralization of their bases, and abstention . “a third of the madrid electorate is historically left-wing . Leguina won elections because there are historical bases that will never vote to the right. The danger is abstention, and that is what we are for, to mobilize them ,” they say in the psm.
