The second vice president of the Government and leader of Sumar, Yolanda Díaz, will present this Wednesday the candidacy for the Presidency of the Xunta in Galicia, for which her spokesperson in Congress and deputy for A Coruña, Marta Lois, is gaining strength again. the first person he thought of more than a year ago when the movement was formed and who is currently his voice and ears in the parliamentary group.
Marta Lois suggested that her role was currently in the Lower House, a circumstance that gained even more weight with the breakup of the group and the departure of the five Podemos deputies to the Mixed Group.
