The result in catalonia , they argue that it is a very difficult territory , and that the pp will have to continue working "For years" to recover ground, although they do not stop explaining that they are the third force there. They describe the result in andalusia as “impressive” , but also the good data from the canary islands , from aragon … and even the detail that they have beaten cascos in asturias , and josé blanco in lugo . The summary they give is that there have been “splendid” results . Rajoy's emotion sources from the pp apparatus recognize that mariano rajoy felt excited by the election data, although externally it was barely apparent. After thirty years in the party, with what he has been through since he became president of the pp , the best electoral result in history has now been achieved, and that is very special for him, these sources add. Rajoy feels proud of his game and also of his team.People who had contact at that time with the candidate's campaign management were able to confirm that at the national headquarters, on ferraz street , at that time there was "More fear than anger" at the overwhelming verdict at the polls.
Members of rubalcaba 's electoral team recognized at that time that the campaign developed had been a great disappointment for them. “we have not managed to come back even a single day,” was heard in those sources. What's more, they Special Database added that things had gone so badly that the campaign had even turned out to be “counterproductive . ” an order that must be disobeyed there is no need for rubalcaba to appear alone at the ferraz headquarters to announce the result of the elections; sources related to the psoe describe what happened as “a shame”, that is, that he had been left completely alone . They add that, even if it had been a slogan from the candidate himself, “that is one of those orders that must be disobeyed. "Anything except leaving him abandoned." the analysis carried out in rubalcaba 's surroundings on what happened concludes that loneliness was already consolidated during the campaign : the party, and its most significant leaders, dedicated themselves to going about their business, to their battles , to thinking about what awaits them in the future, without being truly committed to the xit polls showed even more pessimism among prominent socialist leaders, consulted by el confidencial digital. “we fear the worst ,” some of them already predicted a few minutes after eight in the afternoon.
The street was occupied by the police and journalists , but practically deserted by supporters. Simply, about twenty smokers were gathered at the doors. Inside the national headquarters of the psoe there was more atmosphere, with almost 500 militants who wanted to support rubalcaba . The socialist candidate followed the development of the scrutiny, from the beginning, together with the president of the government and secretary general of the psoe, josé luis rodríguez zapatero ; and the secretary of organization of the party, marcelino iglesias . He was also accompanied by his wife, pilar goya , and his team of collaborators, among whom were elena valenciano and antonio hernando . These are some anecdotes that occurred yesterday at the socialist headquarters: -- reading and lunch in ferraz : the socialist candidate spent most of the day locked in his office on the fourth floor of the psoe headquarters. He had lunch with his campaign director, elena valenciano, and the vice coordinator of the party's federal electoral committee, antonio hernando. In the afternoon, he spent some time reading before beginning to analyze the first data from the polls.
