Isabel Díaz Ayuso wears the shirt of the president of the Madrid PP this Monday to gather its Management Committee and give a letter of nature to the list of candidates for the majority of his party that were still known: those 84 municipalities where the populists already rule. Among them are some towns of the greatest importance, such as Majadahonda or Pozuelo de Alarcón; for this is one of the highest per capita incomes in the whole country. And it will be a messenger.
This list, which will be presented today by the Management Committee of the PP in Madrid and then approved by the autonomous Electoral Committee, will put an end to the speculation that has been going on for weeks in the party: provided. The majors received calls confirming that they were not going to show heads or warning them. Most people accepted the changes through playfulness and elegance, but some did not hesitate to declare that they would not voluntarily repeat the race.
Former inspector and councillor
Majadahonda (71,700 inhabitants) is one of the municipalities in which the mayor today, José Luis Álvarez Ustarroz, does not want to repeat. These things were reported by him a few days before, through which he was traveling, how the leadership of the party had communicated to him. In his place, the PP of Madrid Lola Moreno (46 years old), inspector of police, who was the Minister of Social Policy and the Family between 2018 and 2019, head of the coordination unit against Violence against Women in the Government Delegation and General Director of Women in the Community of Madrid, among other positions .
In Pozuelo de Alarcón (86,100 inhabitants), a popular village since 1983, Susana Pérez Quislant does not repeat, as she had announced a few days ago. To be replaced number 1 in the PP list by Paloma Tejero (45 years old), with experience in the City Council of Pozuelo years ago, and also in Móstoles.
“Powerful Women”
In both cases, political sources explained, “two strong women with management experience” were chosen to take over, with the aim of “renovating and stimulating these large municipalities”. Pozuelo de Alarcón has been governed by a minority since 2019, when in the Majadahonda coalition government with Vox, which has two councilors in the current councilor team.
Lola Moreno (Majadahonda), inspector of the National Police, was adviser of Social Policy and Director General of Women, among other positions; Paloma Tejero (Pozuelo de Alarcón), had just been appointed deputy minister of the environment. He was councilor of the government in Pozuelo and Móstoles; and Ana Millán (Arroyomolinos), despite being investigated in an alleged case of administrative violation, the PP showed its full support.

The current pioneers of Las Rozas (95,700 inhabitants), José de la Uz and Boadilla del Monte (52,600 inhabitants), Javier beda, will also repeat as headliners, despite the fact that for some time there was speculation about his possible departure.
Jesús Moreno, alderman of Tres Cantos (46,700) since 2012 and with an absolute majority in the next elections, will also head the electoral list again.
Ana Millán, the mayor of the current Arroyomolinos (30,000 inhabitants), will once again head the white council in the city of the aforementioned town, although he was summoned by a judge in a case of alleged administrative infringement. The Madrid PP thus gives its full support, which has already been declared when the deputy secretary of the party’s organization was named.
To the tables of the Assembly
Similarly, Isabella Díaz Ayuso will not forget some of those who are now missing from the courts of their town: the current councilors of Pozuelo de Alarcón, Susana Pérez Quislant, and Colmenar Viejo, Jorge García, will continue in the project. the president in the second legislature in the assembly of Madrid, to indicate the delegates in the regional elections to his chamber.
The regional electoral committee will vote today all the candidates from the towns where the PP currently governs, and also seven where it does not govern and who are still missing, with two cases of independents who now present themselves under the addition of the Popular. Party
Among the institutions, the youngest mayor candidate Lucia Diego (25 years old), the head of the catalog in Santorcaz (850 inhabitants), a town currently governed by 5 councilors and where the PP has two mayors.
As for the oldest candidate, it is Rafael García (76 years old), who is running for Gargantilla del Lozoya and Pinilla de Buitrago, towns where he is now the mayor and with an absolute majority: 6 councilors out of a total of 7.
Louis Partida since 1979
On the other hand, the mayor of this town, Luis Partida, claims to be the candidate of the mayor of Villanueva de la Canada, who has been so without interruption since 1979, and always obtaining several absolute rejections.
With the changes brought, President Díaz Ayuso is achieving renewal in some of the town halls – he is in search of larger majorities in them, but he avoids having a crisis of government now that he is barely three months away from holding the elections.
