PP challenges removal of election banners: no wrongdoing alleged
The regional authorities in Alicante recently overturned a ruling from a provincial electoral body that had demanded the removal of PP banners displayed on multiple lampposts across the city. A local court process confirmed that the banners were lawful and dismissed a complaint filed by PSPV, allowing the party to maintain visibility during the campaign season.
Nomination banners will stay in place along busy corridors such as Aguilera Street, Dénia Street, and La Cantera after the electoral board expressed agreement with the PP. The ruling also signaled that other political groups may pursue their own banner displays at permissible locations, so long as they comply with the relevant rules and timelines.
In parallel, PSPV confirmed it would appeal the decision concerning the placement of banners by the People’s Party, noting that the situation differed from prior instances. The party argues that the Barrett arrangements and regulatory interpretations may have favored one side and requires closer scrutiny under the electoral code.
Barcala campaign posters persist in certain locations
Observers note that the electoral process sparked discussions about where posters can be mounted at street level. Some banners linked to the PP were seen in positions that overlapped with Ciudadanos advertising, prompting questions about compliance with street-level posting standards and the visual impact on public spaces around Alicante.
The electoral court subsequently ruled that certain poster placements by the governing coalition were not in breach of the code, while others were removed as a precautionary measure. This divergence underscores ongoing debates about balance between campaign freedom and street safety, as well as the need for clear, uniform guidelines for all parties involved.

In a separate development, the Electoral College supported a formal complaint from the Liberal Party and instructed the PP to promptly withdraw posters that remained on the property of government allies. The decision highlights the sometimes tense intersection of party strategy, regulatory oversight, and cohabitation in a crowded urban environment.
