I don’t belong to anyone” was Yolanda DÃaz’s first uppercut. There will be no ticket, no tandem or white label. End of story. That framework was the preamble to make her decision official and to, as the type of announcement at the end of the speech dictates, go directly to her KO by launching a crossed jab in her presidential candidacy formulation: “I’m going to take a step forward. I want to be the first president of the country (the jab)… Because it is the time of women. We want to be the protagonists of history and the Spain of women is unstoppable (the crusader)â€. A 1-2. There were more than 3,000 people at the Magariños sports center, more than 2,000 outside. On a field where Pedro Sánchez threw triples and there are also good evenings of national boxing with extraordinary fighters like Jonathan Alonso or Jennifer Miranda.
The vice president showed herself as a person with the capacity for work, dialogue and results. She that she wants to restore good tone to Spanish politics, fleeing from noise and confrontation. She with the state of work as a government and labor program to turn around the environmental and personal conditions that surround people, that is, their constitution of life through a new bill of rights. She said she believed in “a Spain whose dreams are not stolen from her”, brimming with imagination, without generations of glass, with more economic, green and social democracy. A country with different languages ​​in which the Basque Country, Catalonia and Galicia are a nation and which will continue to deepen the coalition’s achievements such as the rise in the SMI or the new labor reform. With primary care as the center of the system.
There were only two allusions to Alberto Núñez Feijóo, the only adversary mentioned. And he claimed from the invisible mothers of the Constitution, as successfully in the sixth motion of censure, to the leadership of a new transition of women together with men, that of care. He also explained the reason for his candidacy: to regain hope. And he did it through whom: the grandmothers and granddaughters and his daughter, Carmela. It was a good speech, effective. Podemos was missing, true, but, above all, the answer to the big question (why they will end up agreeing).
Why should Sumar have a Podemos engine? In line with the controversy over the latest CIS barometer and the division in two for the first time in the Sumar y Podemos survey, “I am going to give you a piece of information”, the most relevant of its microdata. It is an announcement: Sumar (powered by Podemos) is today the third political force in the country. The direct intention (ID) to vote for Sumar (including mentions of IU, Más PaÃs, CompromÃs, En Común Podem, Equo and Los Verdes) stands at 4.6% and that of Podemos (including those that still mention UP). is at 6%. In other words, in ID both already add up to much more than Vox: 10.6%, compared to 6.6%. In a valid vote, Vox would be at 9% and Sumar UP at 14.5%. With these benefits you can look for another engine supplier, but not with more guarantees than the purple ones. The union would obtain more than 3.5 million votes and between 42-49 seats without leaving the box. Data kills story. Also the last-minute polls that the devil loads. The effect is usually the opposite. With the devil changing sides.
It was November 15, 2021 and everything is falling into place. Nobody has the algorithm of success or an oracle. But professionalism is always anticipation. 504 days and 72 weeks later (there was no Sumar), only the strong idea that “Yolanda DÃaz can be president”, as we titled that first article that was followed by four more, can reissue today the coalition and the Sánchez presidency. This thesis, although highly criticized at the time, there is no Socialist or member of the Government who does not support it today. We are all here, as at the beginning of the coalition, with different voices, but the same word. From there, Sumar must dream of the presidency this year or before 2028. Why not? Yolanda DÃaz wants to be president and in politics whoever she wants, she can. There is pilot. Before the PP-Mercedes and the PSOE-Ferrari, if Sumar wants to be the Aston Martin, only the engineers and the car are missing. And mastery of the D’Hondt regulation or law in the race, so that, even if the red car touches you with two laps to go (as happened to Fernando Alonso this weekend), you end up recovering your position.
