Canary Islands regional political activity

Overview

Political organizations in the Canary Islands have focused on addressing social inequality, environmental emergencies, and regional identity. Drago Canarias held a National Secretariat meeting in La Palma to shift political focus away from the capital islands and to encourage voter engagement ahead of the 2027 elections, noting that abstention rates are approximately fifty percent.

During commemorations for the Canary Islands National Flag Day, Drago Canarias opened new headquarters in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria to facilitate public discussion. Additionally, in Fuerteventura, Asamblea Majorera–Coalición Canaria (AM-CC) issued a manifesto emphasizing Canarian identity and migration, with Senate candidate Nuria Cabrera advocating for an inclusive approach to arrivals, whether they come ‘by plane or by boat’ (en avión o en patera).
