Andalucía vote and tests new political scenario – The Universal


 The inhabitants of the autonomous community of Andalusia voted on Sunday in local elections, and are expected to provide the first glimpse of the influence of two new political groups in Spain, after a deep economic crisis exposed the weakness of the traditional two-party system in the country .
 


 


 Spain will hold general elections before the end of the year, while also local and regional elections were held in May and a vote in Catalonia in September.
 


 


 Sunday’s election will provide the first real evidence of political change at a time when economic recovery takes pace picks up and the labor market.
 


 


 Nearly 6.5 million Andalusians, one fifth of the national electorate, may deliver their support at the polls for the first time we matches and Citizens, along with established movements: the Popular Party (PP) in power and Spanish Socialist Workers Party (PSOE).
 


 


 The campaign of the new political groups has focused on cases of corruption involving the PP and the PSOE, which currently holds the administration of Andalusia, addressing inefficient policies to reduce the growing poverty and inequality.
 


 


 In Andalusia, the most populated community in Spain, more than one person in three is unemployed, above the national average rate.
 


 


 Polls indicate that the Andalusians again trust mostly in the PSOE, which has ruled a region traditionally left for 33 years.
 


 


 “We voted for the PSOE, as we always have, they are most do in Andalusia ?, anyone like them,” said Joseph, a retired 82 years, leaving a polling place.
 


 


 However, the projections onto the PSOE its worst election result since 1982, forcing you to seek a full or partial pact to ensure the governance of the community.
 


 


 Polls predict a sharp decline of the main political groups before the advance of Can, the anti austerity party that polls placed as second force in the region, and the centrist Citizens.
