Member parties

According to Spanish electoral law, different parties can run for election in a joint candidacy ( coalición electoral ). This joint candidacy can be limited to one or more constituencies. So the same party can e.g. B. compete in one constituency alone, in one constituency together with party A and in another constituency together with party B.

The community candidacy En Comú Podem is limited to the four Catalan constituencies ( Barcelona , Girona , Lleida and Tarragona ). The following parties belong to En Comú Podem :

After the election, the En Comú Podem MPs initially intended to form their own parliamentary group in the Chamber of Deputies. However, this was rejected by the Parliament's Bureau, so that they joined the parliamentary group of Podemos - just like the MEPs from the Galician community candidacy En Marea .
