Isabel Díaz Ayuso has devastated. It has finally been done with the Community of Madrid, with an unquestionable absolute majority, which allows it to govern without the ballast of Vox, a fellow traveler with whom it is not understood, just as it was not understood in its first government with Ciudadanos .
At last she will govern alone, without having to look at anyone. She will be able to do and undo as she pleases, with her cocky and defiant style, with Madrid as her montera. And with her vows in her hand and with the peculiar way of understanding her freedom, she presents herself before Núñez Feijoó as the baroness, without hesitation.
Ayuso thus culminates a path that began in 2019, when the PSOE won in votes but with the help of Ciudadanos managed to win the presidency of the Community. Two years later, new elections in which he engulfed the orange formation but had to lean on the ultra-right to continue at the Cibeles square headquarters. And now, wearing down the ultra formation (with which he broke a few weeks ago), he seizes the power of the region alone. Ayuso has needed two elections to be able to paint this territory blue without nuances, making a campaign more national than regional, competing directly with Feijoó in his messages.
But not only has Ayuso succeeded. Her travel companion in 2019, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, also maintains the mayoralty and, like her, with an absolute majority, getting Vox out of the way, a difficult toad to swallow and with which she has maintained a more than tortuous relationship. during these four years. Almeida can breathe.
And the rest? The PSOE recovers positions, especially Juan Lobato (Community), as well as Más Madrid in the region (Mónica García), although Rita Maestre is deflating. Podemos is neither here nor expected and Ciudadanos is history.
