Yesterday in Valencia, PP supporters channeled a surge of adrenaline as they gathered at the arena to shape the final stretch of the campaign. Before a crowd of twelve thousand locals, the energy felt like a genuine wave of momentum, a tangible sense that the change voters hoped for could be felt in their fingertips ahead of the 28M elections. The message was clear: rally support for the PP from both right and left, and concentrate votes on the PP to become the top-voted list.
The national president, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, opened his remarks by spotlighting Carlos Mazón and acknowledging the regional leadership for their efforts to mobilize turnout and take on the challenge of energizing the square. He described the gathering as a morale boost for the rest of the campaign.
Feijóo emphasized the need to solidify support for the PP, highlighting the importance of both voting and mobilizing the right voters. He spoke directly to voters who back Vox and Cs, while also addressing supporters of PSOE. The notable shift was the explicit invitation to liberals and far-right voters, groups whose backing had not been openly sought in previous campaigns.
Feijóo framed the appeal as a call to unite votes for the PP in order to foster strong governance for the Valencian Community and Spain. He urged voters to ensure their ballots contribute to a shift away from the current trajectory and to prevent votes from circulating to other parties that advisers warned could dilute the impact of a change in leadership.
Feijóo also noted that the enthusiasm on the ground should not be taken as a given. He urged supporters to stay vigilant, insisting that every vote matters and that complacency could undermine the momentum already visible in the public square. He contrasted this energy with a perceived slower pace from the 2019 campaign, arguing that the current moment represented a calmer but more deliberate change in the political landscape.
Assistant leaders Mazón and María José Catalá echoed the push for a consolidated PP vote, avoiding direct references to other parties while underscoring the value of unity. The message was consistent: avoid vote splitting and rally around a single path to change.
Valencian leadership reiterated that the PP was open to broad cross-party support, urging residents not to scatter their ballots and to focus efforts on a decisive PP vote. The call resonated with the idea that the electorate should channel energy into a single, united option to achieve meaningful reform in the city and the region.
Catalá emphasized that many ballots could align with their platform, but only one ballot stood for change—the PP. She urged everyone to spread that message and remind fellow voters that support for the PP would be a vote for concrete gains.
Mazón, Catalá, and Vicen Mompó highlighted the aim of safeguarding the city council and the regional government as a step toward advancing their leadership in the months ahead. They suggested that if Catalá and Mazón succeeded in their respective roles, the outcome would resemble a near-total handover of leadership, merging regional and national ambitions in a single political journey.
Mazón stressed calls of reform against perceived public-finance strain and criticized what he described as limits on freedom in education and agriculture. He framed public services as a bulwark against the pressures of fiscal stress, arguing for a strong defense of local interests against broader political shifts that could dilute regional priorities.
The trio of Feijóo, Mazón, and Catalá steered their remarks toward the broader image of the Valencian Community within Spain, urging a focus on core topics such as financing, water resources, and critical infrastructure corridors. They did not present a detailed policy package in that moment, but their language underscored a commitment to practical governance that responds to local needs while aligning with national objectives.
The rally process culminated with the three main figures entering the stage through the traditional route and moving through the crowd, a symbolic moment that showcased a broad slate of regional representatives. Attendees included several regional mayors and local leaders, reinforcing the impression of a unified coalition ready to push forward the change agenda.
