The Popular Party of Castilla-La Mancha continues to close the municipal candidacies in the large cities of the Autonomous Community, and after presenting Carlos Velázquez in style in Toledo this week, it plans to do the same in the near future with the City candidate Real, who will once again be Francisco Cañizares, party sources confirm to Europa Press.
The PP chooses as a candidate for the Mayor of Toledo the ‘casadista’ who disputed Paco Núñez to succeed Cospedal

Although the regional president of the PP Paco Núñez returned to Genoa at the beginning of the week to publicize the names of the candidates in the main cities, they are gradually leaking to the media in some cases and in others as in what Regarding Toledo, the presentation was ahead of schedule in recent weeks, at least according to Núñez’s statements.
These two headliners are added to those already known in two other provincial capitals, such as the case of Manuel Serrano in Albacete, who will choose to recover the Mayor’s Office that he held at the end of the 2011-2015 legislature to replace Javier Cuenca; and Beatriz Jiménez Linuesa, who against all odds was one of the first candidates to meet to run for the mayoralty of the Cuenca capital one legislature later for the ‘popular’.
With this panorama, the PP continues to defoliate the daisy of the city of Guadalajara, where an agreement has not yet been reached between Genoa and the Castilian-Manchegan leadership and for which different names have sounded, from the former national deputy Silvia Valmaña to the municipal spokesperson current, Jaime Carnicero, through his counterpart in the Provincial Council, Alfonso Esteban; or whoever was a councilor for Antonio Román’s government team in the last legislature, Armengol Engonga. In any case, the intention was to place the name of the starting point this week.
The PSOE of Castilla-La Mancha has spent weeks criticizing the “delay” in the definition of the PP candidacies and linking the internal rhythm of the PP to the “weakness” of Paco Núñez to designate candidates against the party’s national leadership. Just yesterday the general secretary of the Socialists, Pablo Bellido, repeated it about the candidacy in Guadalajara, the most uncertain up to now.
Apart from the five capitals, Talavera de la Reina and Puertollano also know who will choose to unseat Tita García Élez in the case of the Ciudad de la Cerámica and Adolfo Muñiz in the Mining City. In the first square, it will be the former government delegate and former president of the PP of Toledo José Julián Gregorio; while in Puertollano it will be the businessman Miguel Ángel Ruiz. The candidate in Azuqueca de Henares has also been designated and it will be Manuel Corral who replaces Aure Hormaechea, the last candidate back in 2019.
It will repeat in the big cities where it governs
In the case of the large cities of Castilla-La Mancha where the PP already governs –and except for surprise–, it is decided to repeat the photo of the poster, as Paco Núñez himself announced several months ago. This is the case of Almansa, where Javier Sánchez Roselló chooses to retain the baton of command; Villarrobledo, with Valentín Bueno; and Daimiel, where Leopoldo Sierra will aspire to his fifth legislature in the chair of the Presidency of the City Council.
Of the rest of the towns with more than 15,000 inhabitants in Castilla-La Mancha, almost all have decided on the candidate. Thus, in the province of Albacete, –in addition to the capital, Almansa and Villarrobledo–, Manuel Serena will compete in Hellín; while Eduardo Sánchez will do the same in La Roda.
Within Ciudad Real, Javier Navarro postulates in Tomelloso; Cándida Tercero in Valdepeñas; José Antonio Navarro in Alcázar de San Juan; the former of Cs Luis Márquez in La Solana; and Rebeca Maroto in Manzanares. In Illescas (Toledo) it will be the spokesperson for the party, Alejandra Hernández, who tries to recover the Mayor’s Office.
In this way, Guadalajara, Tarancón, Miguelturra and Seseña are the only towns with more than 15,000 inhabitants that are yet to close for the Popular Party ahead of the next municipal elections in May.
