PSOE has been promoting a campaign against Isabel Díaz Ayuso to divert attention from their own controversies.
Demands for Ayuso's resignation are seen by some as unfounded and lacking legal basis.
Some Government members have accused Ayuso of benefiting from a supposed tax fraud by her partner, accusations that have yet to be proven.
Ayuso has adopted an aggressive defense strategy, which has been criticized as it may undermine her arguments.
Cross-accusations and the use of personal life for political purposes have been prevalent in Spanish political discourse.
This dynamic fuels polarization in Spanish politics, and reduces incentives for politicians to reduce levels of antagonism.
Conclusion: The editorial implies that a change of strategy from the political actors to reduce polarization and increase integrity would be beneficial.
