Lucía Muñoz wants to repeat as a candidate for Podemos for the mayoralty of Palma

PalmaThe Podem councilwoman in the Palma City Council, Lucía Muñoz, will run in the party's primaries to head the candidacy at Cort for the 2027 municipal elections. Muñoz announced her decision this Tuesday through a video in which she claims the need to build a political majority to tackle tourist overcrowding and guarantee access to housing.

"These years I have presented many proposals to combat tourist overcrowding and for housing to be a right, but too many times they have been rejected," points out Muñoz. The councilwoman argues that now she wants to take a step further and move from parliamentary initiative to the construction of a majority that allows these measures to be implemented. "I am not satisfied with just presenting proposals. I want to build a majority to turn them into reality," she states.

The city model is one of the axes of her candidacy. Muñoz bets on limiting the weight of tourist activity and giving priority to the needs of residents, especially at a time when access to housing is one of Palma's main problems. "I want Palma to stop being a theme park and be a city for those who inhabit it, where houses are not a luxury, where young people have a future and working families can make ends meet without difficulties," affirms the councilwoman.

The candidate also criticizes the city model that, in her view, has prioritized tourist and speculative interests above the needs of the people who live and work in Palma. As she has explained, her proposal involves placing housing and the fight against overcrowding at the center of municipal political action. Muñoz closes the announcement with a call to articulate a social and political majority alternative to Cort. "Palma is not theirs. Palma is ours. It is time to prove it," she concludes.
