Zoido poses with his team in the season finale
Four years after winning the 2007 elections, Zoido be mayor of Seville. If then the coalition Monteseirín Alfredo Sanchez and Antonio Rodrigo Torrijos wrested baton, today, with the most votes, as then, and most of the council, Juan Ignacio Zoido can finally say that it is the mayor of Seville. In an even better result than expected, Juan Ignacio Zoido has been done with 20 council members, compared with 15 who got in previous elections. The PSOE has been in the group 11 and IU has lost one, to stay at 2. The PA, which at first appeared with 2 council has finally returned to stay out of the Consistory.
So having achieved 42% of the votes in the city earned him not to roll the alliance between socialists and communists. The PSOE transferred to IU-who was only 8% of the vote- key councils to stay in front of City Hall. Monteseirín Torrijos gave a delegation of Economics and the Youth and Sports, among others. It is expected that now, with a government without mortgages such as the PSOE, Zoido to develop their work without the demands of a minority partner.
now opens an era of change in the city. During the campaign, both as mayor and his party has no standing to say that will govern for all and throughout the city. And that will make the shaft of his austere economic poítica after a term marked by the construction of the controversial "mushrooms" of the Incarnation or the costs of the single Metro line made for the moment. For now, Zoido pledged to cut seven of delegations of the City Council that now rules.
16 years in Seville
ungovernedWith the victory of the PP in the city just a "curse" that had taken this game out of the government team since 1995, when the popular Soledad Becerril, in coalition with the Andalusian, ruled in the city.
Sevilla's victory is significant not only for the time they have been in opposition. Also because the regional and general on the horizon, this popular victory in Seville seems prescient.
