The Basque PP has fuelled suspicions of electoral fraud by targeting mail voting

The presidentof the Basque PP, Javier de Andrés, has raised suspicions of fraud inthe 29-N elections, as other leaders of the right and the extreme right have done after learning of the call for general elections.

At a press conference in Vitoria-Gasteiz, De Andrés focused on the vote by post, as did the President of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, "because there have been strange cases." The leader of the Basque people has not specified what she is talking about, but has stressed that they are seeing "shocking things."

He said that the Basque PP will continue to receive the vote by post because "we trust us more." "How can we not suspect if a plumber like Leire Diaz was placed in the post office?" adds De Andrés.

"I know you can't trade one bag for another, it's not easy, but... I suspect they'll try? Yes, I suspect. We'd be stupid if we didn't," he said.

Congresses to form PP lists

Following the call, the PP has postponed the territorial congresses (which were not officially convened), where candidates will be nominated.

At present, there are no members of the PP in Gipuzkoa.
