Carme Gomila from Manacor, new president of Esquerra Republicana in the Balearic Islands

PalmCarme Gomila, a councilor for Esquerra Republicana in Manacor, has been elected as the new president of the party in the Balearic Islands. She will be joined by Miquel Àngel Sureda, a councilor in the Pollença City Council, as president of Esquerra in Mallorca. This weekend, Esquerra Republicana held its territorial congresses at its headquarters in Manacor to elect a new political leadership. Mateu Xurí, president of the party in the Balearic Islands for the past several years, had already announced that he would not run again due to the renewal of his position, although he remains involved in the project as part of the new executive committee. The candidacy, led by Carme Gomila, received clear support from the membership, according to party sources. The councilwoman from Manacor City Council expressed her gratitude for the work done and her commitment to "continue the party's political action," working to strengthen the pro-independence projects of MÉS per Mallorca, Més per Menorca, and ARA Eivissa, of which Esquerra Republicana is an integral part.

The party's executive committee in Mallorca has also been renewed. Pollença City Councillor Miquel Àngel Sureda will now be the island's president. Sureda expressed his willingness to work closely with Carme Gomila to strengthen Más per Mallorca's position and achieve strong electoral results in 2027. Oriol Junqueras, president of Esquerra Republicana, was present to support Gomila and Sureda, proclaiming "Free and sovereign Catalans."
