  • Galicia is holding advanced elections today in an attempt to reinforce political stability.
  • Current President Alfonso Rueda (PP) faces uncertainty over potentially losing the absolute majority.
  • There are three possible outcomes: a maintained majority by the PP, an electoral shift favoring BNG in coalition with socialists, or a decisive influence from a minority and young force like Democracia Ourensana.
  • The state-level debate dominated the electoral campaign, which might have not worked in favor of the PP.
  • Socialist candidate Besteiro had a modest performance in this electoral campaign, in contrast to Ana Pontón from BNG who showed a clear rise.

Conclusion: There is uncertainty regarding the election outcome. The PP might face a challenging scenario if pacts with separatists have not been well-received by voters, while the BNG has experienced significant growth in support during the campaign.
