From this Tuesday until the regional and municipal elections on May 28, public representatives are prohibited by law from using acts or resources of an institutional nature to launch electoral fanfare or brag about their achievements. The inauguration acts of public works or services are also illegal, even if they can start operating. It is what is known as electoral silence or ban, a principle that tries to safeguard the neutrality of the public powers in the weeks prior to the elections but which, on occasions, means drawing a very fine line between information and propaganda in a particularly sensitive.
