CUP political activity and electoral strategy
Overview
The Candidatura d’Unitat Popular (CUP) has been focusing on organizational expansion and electoral preparations. In Girona, the party inaugurated a new headquarters in Plaça de Sant Pere to serve as a territorial base and a workspace for local movements ahead of the 2027 municipal elections.
