If Feijóo chose Extremadura to start the 28-M campaign, with the pasting of posters in Badajoz, together with María Guardiola, the president of the PP is going to the other end of the peninsula this time and will start his electoral campaign in Catalonia, with the pasting of posters in Castelldefels, one of the few town halls in which the PP governs, with Manu Reyes at the head, and a symbol for the PP, next to Badalona, ??with Albiol in front.
Feijóo will go to Casteldefels on Thursday evening, to proceed with the hanging of the posters, but before that he will have been in his hometown, Os Peares, in Ourense, with just 63 inhabitants according to the 2019 census, to which the president of the PP has put it on the map after showing it in the ten-minute video that the PP has recorded to show the unknown Feijóo from its origins.
The PP will thus begin its campaign for the general elections on July 23, and from there it will tour all the autonomous communities, again, with acts that on most days will be at least two. The fact of starting the day before the start of the campaign in Os Peares represents, according to the PP, the importance that Feijóo gives to rural Spain, also known as emptied Spain, which he took to Guimenells on Saturday, for the same reason , in Lleida, claiming the primary sector. These visits to small towns add to the gesture that the president of the PP wanted to have by going to the constitution of the city council of Celadas (Teruel), a town of 300 inhabitants, the day all the mayors were elected.
The choice of Castelldefels for the pasting of the posters is also significant, since it will mark the third visit that Alberto Núñez Feijóo has made to Catalonia in a period of ten days. Catalonia is one of the black holes of the PP, which in the last general elections, those of November 2019, with Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo as the head of the list in Barcelona, ??obtained two seats, three less than four years earlier, and a debacle if compares with 2011, when the PP got 11 Catalan deputies for Congress.
Already on the first day of the campaign, the president of the PP will go from Catalonia to Andalusia, the most populous autonomous community, with more than eight and a half million inhabitants, and which provides 61 deputies to Congress, compared to the 48 that are elected in Catalonia , with a population of just over 7.5 million inhabitants.
Feijóo will be in Seville that Friday, the start of the campaign, and from there he will travel to Badajoz, where Extremadura will be in full preparation for the inauguration of its president. In fact, the president of the Assembly has convened for the 5th and 6th of this month, one day before the start of the campaign, the investiture of Fernández Vara and it is still unknown if Blanca Martín will maintain it or will convene for those days the election of María Guardiola as president of Extremadura, after her agreement with Vox.
That weekend, the first of the campaign, Alberto Núñez Feijóo will be in Zamora on Saturday and on Sunday at the Pontevedra Bullring, with a capacity for about 12,000 people, which Feijóo considers a “talisman place”, because it is where He began his four campaigns that all led to absolute majorities in Galicia.
There will be no rallies on Monday the 10th because it is the date designated for the face-to-face debate with Pedro Sánchez, which will take place at Atresmedia starting at 10:00 p.m.
The next day, the president of the PP will travel to Ciudad Real in the morning and to Cádiz in the afternoon, and from there he will travel to Murcia, where an event will be held on Wednesday and the day will end in Alicante.
