Pere Granados will head the Formació Unida per Salou list in the 2027 municipal elections. The party's Board of Directors and Executive Committee have unanimously backed his candidacy during meetings held this week to define the electoral strategy.
All members supported the decision to renew the alliance with the Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya under the Sumemos por Salou brand. This coalition seeks to present a common front that consolidates institutional stability in the coastal municipality.
Granados repeats as head of the list
It will be the fifth time that the current mayor leads the formation since he took office in 2009. His trajectory at the head of the council marks a milestone in the recent local politics of the area.
"He maintains the illusion and the will to continue leading an inclusive political project" - Pere Granados, candidate for mayor
The leader has underlined his intention to represent the plurality of existing sensitivities in the city. He considers that this continuity is essential to maintain social cohesion.
The president highlights her institutional loyalty
Júlia Gómez, president of FUPS, has defined the councilor as the best political asset available for Salou today. Her assessment focuses on the candidate's ethical track record.
Gómez has explicitly praised his respect for the values of the municipal institution. He also highlights his adherence to good governance criteria and political ethics as fundamental pillars of his management.

The confidence placed in Granados reflects the internal unity of the party in the face of the electoral challenge. There are no visible dissensions in the leadership structure regarding this election.
Consolidation of the pact with the socialists
The mayor has described the renewal of the alliance with the socialists as very positive. This agreement comes after overcoming the previous disagreements with the provincial leadership of the PSC.
The previous conflict was linked to the so-called Berrio case. Overcoming these tensions now allows the campaign to be focused from a stable collaboration perspective.
Only a strong government guarantees a transversal candidacy capable of uniting the interests of the social majority. This premise guides the outgoing team's communication strategy.
The bet on the repetition of the FUPS-PSC binomial seeks to avoid the fragmentation of the progressive and centrist vote. The experience accumulated in recent legislatures serves as the basis for this new joint project.
