Spanish general elections in Andalusia

Overview

Following Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s announcement to dissolve the government and call for general elections on November 29, the political landscape in Andalusia has become a focal point of the upcoming Spanish elections.

Adelante Andalucía spokesperson José Ignacio García announced that the political formation intends to contest the elections in all eight Andalusian provinces. During a mobilization in Jerez, García advocated for a new left-wing presence in Congress to defend the working class and criticized the housing situation as ‘unsustainable,’ calling for a ‘historic general strike’ to combat speculation by vulture funds.

Andalusia’s electoral weight remains significant, with its eight constituencies set to elect 60 deputies to the 350-seat Congress, representing 17.14% of the total. This is a slight decrease from 2023, as the province of Cádiz will see its representation reduced from nine to eight seats. The region continues to be viewed as an essential territory for national parties due to its influence on forming government majorities.
